I have a Sharepoint Online (365) form library with a
InfoPath form. The form has a People Picker control on it. Previously you could
click its Browse button, the search window would pop-up, and you could put in a
partial name and search. For example if you put in “James” it would return all
the James’s in the organization.
But this feature seems to be broken now. Instead it returns “No results were found to match your search item. Please enter a new
term or less specific term.”. If you type in a complete name of
someone it will find it. But I’m sure that the partial search worked before.
Is anyone
else seeing this? Perhaps a recent service update has broken this feature?
