HI Everyone ,

 

I have a Dataverse table for my PowerApps where Iam storing the data


I have to create a column where I can enter Multiple Email ID 's (More like a multiselect Person type Column in PowerApps)


it should have a full experience in PowerApps where I can select users in the Combo box and edit or add new use

 

I have created a Lookup Column named as "Users" in my Dataverse Table and created New Relationship > Many-to-Many

 

But I don't know what the columns in the Lookup Tables should be, and how will I match with the User table with my Parent Tables 

 

If I open a record in PowerApps from Dataverse tables, I should be able to see the Multiple users related to that list 

 

Could anyone please briefly explain how to do it, Iam new to Dataverse

    @Danny_Dicaprio - as you're aware, you cannot replicate the multi-user lookup experience like in SharePoint because the Lookup column in Dataverse cannot allow multi user selection.

     

    The way to do it as “designed” is to leverage the Many-to-Many relationship you created between your Table and the User table. Do you still want to understand how to do this, or has this post been resolved by your other post? (I note it still not marked as solved).
