Incompatible Type Comparison associate with Filtering on Multi person Field (Table/Text)

Posted on by DC-18082037-0

I have set a variable OnStart Set(loggedinUser,User().Email)

When I go to use this variable in a Gallery Filer as show below, as you can see i receive the Incompatibility warning. I have tried in, Exactin, and =, but the person field named Owners throws a warning.

What I really want to know is why "Assigned To', 'Created By', 'Modified By' works yet a person field called Owners does not.

Thank you for your time

Hi @dclay41 ,

If this is a multi-person field, you need (note this not Delegable) - I assume varLoggedinUser is a Text Variable containing an email address

Filter( 'List of Policies' varLoggedinUser in Owners.Email )

Hi @dclay41 ,
I think you have store all the user information in a variable like Set(varLogginUser,User()) and this variable return you the
Object so you have to compare something like this
Filter('List of Policies',varLoggedinUser.Email = Owners.Email)

It still gives me a Delegation warning i am guess as it is a Multi-person field. Any other way to get around that.
