InfoPath Dev

Hi All,

  I am currently migrating my SharePoint 2013 farm to SharePoint Online. While migrating I am getting a issue with InfoPath People picker control.

When I open a old form in SharePoint Online user names are not getting auto verified and if m I create a new form it works fine , I need to fix that issue as I have more than 1000 records and I cant do the changes manually.

Please let me know if anyone faced same issue or solved it already.

I'd compare an XML from the new environment with one that was migrated (i.e., one where the people picker resolves vs. one where it doesn't). Look at the account id in the person field - it probably starts with a claims prefix in the new environment. If your people picker is for a single person, you may be able to fix the account id up with form load rules. Personally - I'd save all the XML files locally and use PowerShell to fix them up, then re-upload them after I'd verified a few....

Thank you for the reply but I don't know much about PowerShell.

if you have a link from where I can refer and resolve this that will be very helpful.

 

Is your people picker for a single person? or multiple? If single you could do this with form rules.

My people picker is single person.

Can you Please guide me with the rules? 

Can you look at the value in the field (by downloading the XML and opening with a text editor) where the field is correctly resolved in the new eviro vs. an old form? And let me know what you see?

I can see the change in login name function earlier it was " i:0#.w|" and now it is " i:0#.f|membership".

 

So - you could have a form load rule that if the field starts with "i:0#.w|", set it to substring-after "i:0#.w" concatenated with "i:0#.f|membership". I'm attaching a simple sample with this rule on a button. Right click the linked form, save locally. Right click the locally saved XSN and select Design to open in Design mode.
