I'm having trouble writing sharepoint users to a sharepoint list. It does not seem to matter how I'm formatting the user string attribute - it just wont accept it.

 

The writer is configured as uploaded workspace. The sharepoint list adds a new, empty row.

 

 

HOW do I configure the writer, and what is supposed to be the correct attribute value?

To my understanding, the attribute value is to be formatted as

i:0#.f|membership|name.name@domain.se

Hi @totobobiasos​ ,

Have you tried setting the attribute value to: "FirstName LastName" (no quotes)?

I just did a test and was able to submit if I used the users name rather than how the "account" value is formatted.

I would recommend reading in the SharePoint list to see how the data is displayed in FME and mimic that. Again it should display the user field based on "FirstName LastName".

Ah. That simple, huh.

No duplicate management. That's going to complicate things a bit. Hmm.

 

Thanks for the answer! :-)

Is it possible to write to a users field that accepts multiple selections?

Hi ​@erivero 

Are you asking about a Person column in a list?
