    Hi Harry,

     

    They are office365 users, what i did to try a work around as i do not understand the twitter example used in the wiki

     

    I created a list on powerpoint using a list of email address and added a lookup column in my list im trying to patch and used the ID to reference it. That way if offline the user could still select the email address as i had hoped it could just send to the selected email.

     

    So ive got to create a collection using Savedata and then load that data using Loaddata on the apps start up?

     

    Could you give me a brief example of how i am able to do this using a person column as its the only thing stopping my apps from being completely offline?

    Hi @Anonymous ,

    This occured when email address is not regirested as a user in Office365, for Approvals you can use Email ID of only office 365 users not external Email Ids.

     

    Thanks,
