Posted on by Emanuele 9

When I try to submit a form with a people picker populated, I have this error and the value in the people picker wasn't save.

"an uexpected 'PrimitiveValue' node was found when reading from json reader. A 'StartObject' node was expected"

    Hello @Emanuele

     

    I am not aware of a 'people picker' control in PowerApps, is this a drop down, a list box or a text input?  If you are not sure, can you paste a picture?

     

    Thanks.

    Hello @Meneghino,

    I found the problem. Powerapps doesn't support multi-selection in people picker.

     

    Thanks
