🚀 Update a SharePoint Person Column the RIGHT Way with Power Automate! In this step-by-step tutorial, you’ll learn two different methods to update a SharePoint Person column using Power Automate — and discover which approach performs better and why. 👤 We start by walking through a manual trigger method using Get Items, Filter Array, and Parse JSON, which works but can quickly become complex and inefficient. ⚡ Then, we introduce the preferred and cleaner solution using an ODATA Filter Query directly inside the Get Items action. This method significantly improves performance, reduces unnecessary steps, and helps you avoid common Flow Checker warnings. 🎯 Watch how Jonathon filters directly to a selected person’s Display Name, making it easy to update SharePoint Person columns accurately and efficiently. This technique can be reused across many real‑world Power Automate scenarios. ✅ By the end of this video, you’ll clearly understand: How to update SharePoint Person columns When to use Filter Array vs ODATA Filter Query How to build faster and cleaner Power Automate flows 👍 Want formal Microsoft training?
