Select your person or group column followed by Claims as the input for the person column in the update item action assuming that that only one person can be entered.

In my case my person column is called PG.

After reading your post again, I do see where you say that the column in list 2 is a text column. I am having trouble understanding why you need the ID to update a value in a text column where you can enter the display name from the list 1 person column. Is the column being updated a text column, a lookup or some other column type?

In fact I would like to combine several lists, the Master list will be "AllUsers" where I have all my users (1200 in total) the other lists also have the person/group column also unique in each list but the person/group does not necessarily exist in all sub-lists ,

I would like to retrieve some information from each list and update the master list "All Users" for example:

Master list AllUsers"
User	Monitor	Mobile	Mobile Plan
Mr Smith	123	EX001	Premium30
Monitors
User	Serial	Brand	Model
Mr Smith	123	Dell	LatiX
Mobile
User	Serial	Brand	Model
Mr Smith	EX001	HP	HPone1
Mobile Plan
User	Plan	Network op	Budget
Mr Smith	Premium30	Orange	130
