I have a form in which I have a drop-down and a people picker fields. These values are present in another list. Based on the value selected on the drop down, I want to populate the people picker field on the form. I am unable to fetch the people picker field's value. Please help

Hi,

 

Unfortunately what you are trying to achieve cannot be done out of the box. 

You could try using a calculated value control to do the look up of the person based on the dropdown or use a classic Nintex form with custom JavaScript.

Thanks for your reply @SimonMuntz ! Can you please give some more insights on how to use the calculated value control for this purpose?

The calculated value would have a lookup() runtime function that looks up the person.
The filter of the lookup function would use the drop down controls value.
