Unable to patch user entity data

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hello,

 

In system user entity, I have created a custom field called "ClosedTime" (Text data type)  and as "System Administrator" I am patching time value with following formula that throws an error:

 

"The requested operation is invalid, Server Response: Users failed:No modifications to the 'SYSTEM' or 'INTEGRATION' user are permitted."

The same formula was functional earlier, however today it's not working.

Any clue?

Thanks,

    Hi @pagonza 

     

    An error is resolved finally by updating data at two places for update formula as follows:

     

    OnVisible Screen:

    //Set current User email
    Set(gblCurrentUserEmail, User().Email);
    //Get current User Record
    Set(gblCurrentUserRecord,LookUp(Users, 'Primary Email' = gblCurrentUserEmail));
     
    Update Formula:
    Patch( Users, gblCurrentUserRecord, { ClosedTime: Now() })
     
    Thanks,
