Person Type column problem

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Lhanoo 4

Hi everyone,

 

I'm trying to filter some items using the function: "substringof"

However I keep getting bad request errors, this Viajante is a person column in my sharepoint list and I need to check his email and DisplayName. Everything is working perfectly besides this Viajant part. Does anyone know how to fix it? 

 

Thanks

    Could you try something like this to get Email and DisplayName ?
