Posted on by Community Power Pla...

Hello,

Scenario:

Sharepoint list with Person-type column
Form control with combobox to search for people
- Multiple select set to true
- I'm able to select multiple people
When form is submitted, only one of the names is written to the Sharepoint list

How do I get the multiple selected items into the Sharepoint list?

Thank you!

Hi @ericonline

Are you using the form control
If Yes then did you make any customizations to the data card?
The default behavior of the form control for a multi select peerson column should work

Thanks @Jeff_Thorpe . The Sharepoint column was NOT set to "Allow multiple".

Strangely, after I set the column to "Allow multiple" NO names show up in the column!

If I remove Allow multiple, one name shows up.

Going to have to dig deeper...

Hi @RezaDorrani , Yes, the Form control is customized. I'm thinking i'll have to adjust the Update property from xyz.Selected.Displayname to xyz.SelectedItems.

Going to try that they report back.

Hi @ericonline

Did you have any luck with getting this to work after switching to "xyz.SelectedItems." ?

I am having similar issues with blanks showing up on my cascading multi-select combo boxes.

Please let me know.

Thanks
