Set a client people picker by user id?

[Dan_C]

Hi there,

I'm hoping you can help me out. I am getting a user id returned by an api to person field on a separate list. I want to use the value returned from the api to populate a field on my form.

Is there any way I can use the id that's being returned from the other list like fd.field('x').value(id)?

Or is there an easy way to get the user name instead once I have the user id and use that?

I think I figured it out. Instead of using a people picker I used an ASP textbox and databind to update to the user id. Appears to work
