Filtering Gallery by Single Select People Picker Column in a Dropdown

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 12

Hi,

 

I'm having trouble populating a dropdown filter with names from a single select people picker/person or group column in a Sharepoint list. I have configured 2 other dropdowns to display distinct values from a string column and a choice column (both include a blank value that functions as a "show all") as follows:

String column dropdown items property: 

 

Ungroup(
 Table(
 {DropdownOptions: Table({Result:""}) },
 {DropdownOptions: Distinct('SPList',StringCol)}
 ),
 "DropdownOptions"
 )

 

 Choice column dropdown items property:

 

Ungroup(
 Table(
 {Items: [""]},
 {Items: Distinct('SPList',ChoiceCol.Value)}
 ),
 "Items"
 )

 

 

Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

    What is the problem you are having?  Can you detail what you are seeing and not seeing?

    I am not able to populate my dropdown list with any values from my single select people picker SP column. I have tried putting my people column into both of my above methods but the dropdown does not populate with anything and remains blank.

    So is the column defined as a Person/Group column, or is it the Text or Choice column you showed?  I am a little confused with your post - are you stating that the two formulas you showed are what you DO have working and it is this other column type that you are not getting working?  If that is the case, then what is your Items formula for your control at this point?
