Specified User was not found: Status 400

Hey everyone,

checked already all other request for this topic but no suggested solution works for me.

I'm working on a flow which is triggered by a Forms answer.

The idea is to get the information out of forms into a SharePoint List as an item. Within that there is a People Picker field which needs to be filled.

While testing Create Item action I got the error message, that this user wasn't found (the user I'm testing with is my own one):

Der angegebene Benutzer  wurde nicht gefunden.
clientRequestId: 9e124a4b-23a3-4dcb-8568-4ea1acdd9811
serviceRequestId: 9e124a4b-23a3-4dcb-8568-4ea1acdd9811

Already checked	Outcome
trying if People Picker field is corrupted by manually create an item	Everything works fine as expected
using 'responders email' provided by Forms	Error message as above
using Resolve User action and using the 'claims' output instead of any email	Error message as above
Create Item action suggests users, used one of them instead of an email or 'claim'	Error message as above
using Get Profiles to get user information an using these	Error message as above
build the 'claim' by myself using [i:0#.f|membership|<email>] via concat() (<email> is replaced with 'responders email' provided by Forms an 'mail' provided by Get Profiles)	Error message as above
deleted and reinstalled SharePoint connection	Error message as above
added an extra connection for SharePoint	Error message as above

Right now I'm more than overwhelmed and have no idea where my mistake could be.
Especially that some of the mentioned solutions i tried worked for others.

Thanks for your time.

Hey

I am encountering the same problem, did you find a solution?

Best Regards

hey @bimbam ,

to be honest I killed my initial idea, cause I wasn't able to find any solution for that, recreated my usecase and found another solution.

Within the next weeks I will try again with another SharePoint List usecase and hope that it just was an issue within that sepcific flow.

Good luck 😉

Hey @bimbam ,

took a bit longer than expected but somehow the PeoplePicker field is now filled through the flow.
It doesn't make any difference if I'm using mail adress or display name.

Maybe it will work for you now as well?
