Combobox items not visible

[ryanb1]

Hi there

I have a form in edit mode which has as its items property Gallery1.Selected. One of the fields of the form and sharepoint list is JobAssigned where a person is assigned a ticket. The combobox works correctly with the default which is set to ThisItem.JobAssigned from the selected gallery item.

However, the items property is not working.  The combobox only comes up blank when I click the dropdown. Interestingly, it is five items deep, the same number of items as there are on the list it draws from. Can someone tell me how to configure the list properly so that the user can select a person from my pre-defined list?

The items property of the combobox is 

InfrastructureStaff

which is a separate sharepoint list, called InfrastructureStaff, which has a People and Groups column with five people. One of the configurations I have tried is below. I have also tried InfrastructureStaff.StaffPerson (the field which contains the people).

Below is the preview of the data, which looks correct to me.

Comobox configuration:

Is this as simple as setting the cbox items to

InfrastructureStaff.StaffPerson

?

Not sure if you have tried this?

Hi @ryanb1 :

Could you tell me :

• What is JobAssigned 's data type?Does it allow multiple selections?
• What is StaffPerson's data type?Does it allow multiple selections?

I assume JobAssigned  and StaffPerson are all Person and Group type and do not allow multiple selections.

Please try this code:

ForAll(InfrastructureStaff,StaffPerson)

Hi @v-bofeng-msft 

Yes JobAssigned  and StaffPerson are all Person and Group type and do not allow multiple selections. 

Your solution worked! Thank you! Can you help me understand why I needed the ForAll?

[ryanb1]

I had tried that, but no success. Thanks for replying, anyway @Anonymous !

Hi @ryanb1 :

Of course yes.

Because the data structure of the result of ForAll(InfrastructureStaff, StaffPerson) and InfrastructureStaff.StaffPerson is different.

The Value of ForAll(InfrastructureStaff, StaffPerson) is like:

@odata.type'	Department	Claims	DisplayName	Email	JobTitle	Picture
text	text	text	text	text	text	text
text	text	text	text	text	text	text

This is the result you need.

But the Value of  InfrastructureStaff.StaffPerson is like:

StaffPerson

record/table

record/table

Hello, I know this is super old, but leaving this for posterity: check the "display fields" of the combobox value field... for some reason it seems to get resetted or something... if you call the actual content, similar to the items field, it sort of gets refreshed.
