Confiforms - How to set value for User type fields?

Adamo G July 5, 2024

Hi, 

I am kind of new to Confiform and would like to know how (and if) it is possible to set value by Field Definition Rules for User Type fields.

I have a form for which there should be preset users added in specific fields, including User fields with 1 and User fields with 2 users to prepopulate.

I have tried to use "fieldname="lastname, firstname"" parameters as well as other combinations but haven't managed to get it to work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi @Adamo G 

You set a username (DC) or the account id (cloud), depending what type of Confluence you are using (DC or cloud)

Hi, thank you for the response!

EDIT: I managed to get it working on a single user type field, by only including the fieldname, without ".username" and without the quotes around the value.

I ran into another issue. When doing the same with a multi select user type field, only the usernames are displayed, like it doesn't properly recognize the usernames.

Yes, you always have a field name on the "left side", and the value, that you want to put on the "right side"
