Lists.UpdateListItems and Person Field

The Lists.asmx web service enables you to CRUD items on a SharePoint list (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/lists.lists.updatelistitems(v=office.12).aspx)

The default options for the person field however does not work e.g:

  • i:0#.w|domain\username
  • Display Name
  • domain\username
  • Email

To make it work pass one of the following:

  • Single user = [ID];#[Person]
  • Multi user = [ID];#[Person];#[ID];#[Person];#[ID];#[Person];#
  • -1;#Display Name
