Hello,
I follow these steps (https://pankajsurti.com/2020/10/12/how-to-update-people-field-using-send-an-http-request-to-sharepoint-in-power-automate/) and my flow runs successfully.
However, when I go to the created list, the field comes without empty
Can anyone help? @annajhaveri My goal is to fill in the field
Hi @ruiandrebrito,
You could use the validateUpdateListItem method. With that method you can use the key and value (claim of user).
@tom_riha has written a nice blog about this approach:
https://tomriha.com/how-to-easily-update-sharepoint-people-picker-column-in-power-automate/
Below is an example.
{ "formValues": [ { "FieldName": "Assigned", "FieldValue": "[{'Key':'i:0#.f|membership|@{outputs('Get_user_profile_(V2)')?['body/mail']}'}]" } ], "bNewDocumentUpdate": true }
Great. It's worked! 🙂
