Duplicate collection record based on multi-select people picker

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 65
Hi all,
 
I have a gallery of data (from a SharePoint list) and within is a checkbox. Oncheck collects that data, UnCheck removes it, etc.
 
However, one of the fields is multi-select person column, so obviously my collection stores all the names in the single record as it should.
 
My question is, is there a way to create a collection that counts the number of rows for that column, the loops through and created duplicate rows of the same data (essentially splitting the people person column into its own row for each person?)
 
Any help would be appreciated it. I thought it was count rows, then a sequence loop but I think I am over engineering the issue.
 
Cheers,
 
DW

    Hi DMSC
    You have not included any code here, but if you want a count of rows in your gallery with a separate record for each item in a multi-value field
    CountRows(
       Ungroup(
          GalleryName.AllItems,
          MultiValueFieldName
        )
    )
