Hi Team,

I am getting list of user or groups from a ER like below

Now I want to convert this User object to username/name or email.

Or easy language I want to fetch user details from this object

I tried user() but it gives parameter error maybe user() accepts username not user

Please Help

    assuming the "list of user or group" will usually only be 1 user long, and not a sub-list...  simply use a!forEach to loop over the entire list, and cast the internal result as a simple string before passing into the user() function, like this:

    a!forEach(local!data.c10,  user(tostring(fv!item), "firstName"))

    etc.

    user() is the function you want.  Can you post exactly the code you tried, and the exact error message you received?  Otherwise it's hard to provide help that isn't just blind guessing.
