Patch to a sharepoint Person Column errors

Posted on by

Hi, I want to "send" a name on powers apps to my SharePoint list using the function Patch. I have seen so far various patch functions but none are working and I don't understand why. Anyone knows how I can fix this?

 

 

Patch(DB, Defaults(DB),{
 'Person 1':{
 Claims: Concatenate(
 "i :0w.f|membership|",
 User().Email
 ),
 Department: "",
 DisplayName: User().FullName,
 Email: User().Email,
 JobTitle: "",
 Picture: ""
 }
})

    @esilvac, to patch Person columns you need to use this odata:

    Patch(
     Appreciation_week_DB,
     Defaults(Appreciation_week_DB),
     {
     Person: {
     '@odata.type': "#Microsoft.Azure.Connectors.SharePoint.SPListExpandedUser",
     Claims: Concatenate(
     "i:0#.f|membership|",
     User().Email
     ),
     Department: "",
     DisplayName: User().FullName,
     Email: User().Email,
     JobTitle: "",
     Picture: ""
     },
     Department: "",
     DisplayName: User().FullName,
     Email: User().Email,
     JobTitle: "",
     Picture: ""
     }
    )
