Posted on by SushReus 12

Hi All,

 

I want to Update my SharePoint List HELP DESK (Column - Category which is a look up column)  using Patch with the Detail I give in Category Text Box whose value is dependent on Drop Down ddCategoryType . (Have a look at the screenshots)

 

Drop Down ddCategoryType is populated from SharePoint List CategoryOptions

    Hello,

     

    What is the issue? It seems quite straigth forward 🙂

     

    Is it the syntax for the Patch() statement you need help with?
