Issue with paste function

Hi

I am trying to use the following command to paste a new row into my list.
Patch(GeneralSpec,Defaults(GeneralSpec),{Title:Dropdown3_1.Selected.Title,'SPEC Name':Label2_2.Text,Owner:Label2_3.Text})

I'm having problem with the last part of the code:
Owner: Label2_3.Text
When I try to copy an employee's name from a label to a person column.
Thanks for the help

    Hi @cabutbul ,

    Your difficulty is that you also need the user's email if you want to write to a person column. Do you have this available ?

    That was a great question. I made a video that explains how I did it -> https://youtu.be/d5bFuLYLfVA
