Clearing Person FIeld using HTTP request

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 7

Hello,

I have the following HTTP request set up:

cgeorgee_0-1715709508373.png

But it keeps throwing the following error:

cgeorgee_1-1715709535739.png

This column definitely exists and is spelled/capitalized correctly in the Sharepoint list and in the code. Please let me know if you have any solutions!

    Hi , @cgeorgee 

    According to your screenshot, your list name is not the same in your side. You need to check your list Name.

    For example , if your list name is "Nonconformance Record NCR".

    You need to use this in Uri:
    _api/web/lists/getbytitle('Nonconformance Record NCR')/items(1)

     

    And in your Body:

    {

    "__metadata": {"type":"SP.Data.Nonconformance_x0020_Record_x0020_NCRListItem"},

    "AssignedToId":"-1"

    }

    Hi Yueyun,

     

    Thanks for the reply. I actually had it set up that way before, but the list is called "NonconformityRecord" and the flow does not run if the URI does not have that name. However, using "SP.Data.NonconformityRecordListItem" in the body does not work either. I found what is currently there by using a "GET" method to get the "SP.Data.Nonconformance_x0020_Record_x0020_NCRListItem". I am not sure why these are not the same, but the flow does not run if the names are different than the ones I currently have. Is there a way to refresh the names of the list to make them match?

    Hi , @cgeorgee 

    You can check if your uri is right in your browser, like this:

    vyueyunmsft_0-1715827669886.png

    And you can also find the "ListItemEntityTypeFullName" in the xml return.

    And you can also use the Patch method in http so that you do not need to pass the metadata in the body:
