Re: Trying to update a person/group field with a name in active directory
Hello Brandonjepon,
Based off the information you provided, the filed you are looking at is a lookup, correct? You are likely going to need to do a loop through the flow to find the item and return the ID of it into the create/update item.
Basically, Take the List A item, grab the value in that column, then do a List Items for list B, next do an Apply to each for the items in list B, use a condition to look where the Value of the lookup field you are comparing that was pulled from List A tis compared to each item in list B(this is working under the assumption they are unique values), then once it finds that item, have it do a Get so you can grab the ID of the item and input that into a variable. Once it finishes looping through and finding the ID, have it input the ID variable into the Create/Update Item and it should populate properly.
You can see an example of this below:
Otherwise, just note, the big thing you need to add to the lookup field will be the ID of the item from the list the lookup is pointing to.
have a good day,
