Patch person column

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

Hello there,

 

I have my SharePoint list, with Text, choice, and person or group column. 

I was able to create new records using the patch function in my Canvas App, but when I create the combo box and select the person that I want to add, it saved all, but the person or group column still empty. 

My SharePoint List:

My powerapp and patch function:

Is there a way to be able to save the Felipe Wilches in my Powner (person or group type) on my SharePoint list?

    Hi @Anonymous ,

     

    What is the Items property of the combo box control that you use for the person and group field? By default, for a multiple-select enabled person and group field, the Items property of the combo box control inside the edit form should be:

    Choices([@ListName].MultiPerson)

    Replace ListName with your SharePoint list name and MultiPerson with your person and group column name.

     

    Then in Patch formula, for this column, the syntax should be:

    .......MultiPerson:ComboBox1.SelectedItems......

    Regards,

    Mona
