Hi Dmitry,

I've run into an issue where the client rendered people picker is not populating person data in a list. If I switch the form field to server render the person is populated fine.

Is there anything else I need to do to make the client people picker work properly?


Thanks,

Dan

Hi Dan,

First, please, make sure that you have the latest version of Forms Designer installed: 2.9.1. You can find the current version at the lower right corner of the Forms Designer window. Also, make sure that JS-errors or notifications do not appear in the browser console when you submit the form.

Yes - 2.9.1

No errors in the console. The data in the field can be used for an api call where I pull first name, last name, etc, in other fields, but the selected names in the client render just aren't saved when the form is submitted. The rest of the fields save fine. When I switch to server rendered the people selected save fine too.

Hi Dan,

As I understand, you populate the people picker field programmatically via JavaScript, am I right? If so, could you provide your JS-code that populates the field?
