Thanks for your feedback. I got it. Instead of setting myField's username field to the result, I needed to set the GetUserInfo username to the result and then query. works like a charm.

Shouldn't you be using the user alias and not the display name for querying GetUserInfo? Unless I'm missing something about that detail.

You can also try displaying the results of GetUserInfo in a view of your form so you can see what kind of data is coming back.

Missing something - GetUserInfo

selch — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 17:25:07 GMT

In my form I'm using FindUsersByName and that works fine. However, as far as I can tell, it only returns user alias and display name. I want the user's email and phone numbers too. So...

When I get my FindUsersByName result I'm using a button to set Field1 (which is named username) in my Main datasource as the resultant display name. I'd like to use that button to also trigger a GetUserInfo query to populate Field2 with their email and Field3 with their phone. Of course I'm here because that's not working.

Here's the rule I have set for that button:

Set field's value: username = @display

Query using a data connection: GetUserInfo

Set field's value: field2 = Value[key="mail"] --- from the secondary datasource GetUserInfo

Set field's value: field 3 = Value[key="telephoneNumber"] --- from the secondary datasource GetUserInfo

I keep trying different variation of this but I can't get it to query and return results for email and phone. Ideas? Thanks much!
