Person field not working correctly

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 26

This is something I've done a few times before but now something seems weird. 

I added a person field to my list. (No fancy settings just a new field where the type is person). When adding this field to my PowerApp (Not a people picker, just adding that column as a datacard), it displays with item 1 to 8 as options to select from. This is only true for name fields I've added since Sunday (Sunday and today to be exact). 

The other name fields that I added to my form last month - works fine. 

Any ideas?

    I'm so sorry I couldn't figure out what your picture is saying.... Maybe its the language but I can also not see where it is tagging to....

    I'm still having the problem

    Person field not working correctly for 3-4 days. I think it is some bug.  When I added this person column from my List. it shows me like

    when I changed the field of form with Combobox, still it is not shown person's name properly. It is showing claim details:

     It used to work fine 3-4 days before. @Support

    Thanks, This option can work for me. However, this is something recent issue with PowerApp. (posting the English version)
