As the title explain, I try to add "ThisItem.Tekniker.DisplayName" but I only get this error. It works with other columns with person or group that uses single choiche. Is there a solution for this?

    Hi @Anonymous 

    Because you're referring to a field that contains more than one person or group, it's necessary to specify which person/group you want to display.

    This formula here would return the details of the first person.

    First(ThisItem.Tekniker).DisplayName

    Alright, that worked. Now I get the name of the first person. How do I get the rest? I tried using "Second" instead but no luck

    Unforuntately, there is no "second" function.

    An easy way to get the rest is to build a comma separated list. The formula would look like this.

    Mid(
     Concat(ThisItem.Tekniker, "," & DisplayName),
     2,
     Len(Concat(ThisItem.Tekniker, "," & DisplayName))
    )

    Thank you! That worked. Do you know if there is anyway to make each name have their own row? 

     

    Right now it looks like this:

    Name Surname, Name Surname, Name Surname,

     

    I would like it to look like this:

    Name Surname,

    Name Surname,

    Name Surname,

    To get each value on its own row try:

    Mid(
     Concat(ThisItem.Tekniker, "," & Char(13) & DisplayName),
     2,
     Len(Concat(ThisItem.Tekniker, "," & Char(13) & DisplayName))
    )
