Hi All,
I am using Nintex forms and am completely new to Nintex.
I want to set default value for people picker with particular person. There is an option to set current user in nintex, but I want to set a person name(not the current user) as a default value. Any ideas? Any help will be appreciated!
Thank You!

Did you try using just an email address? That worked for me! I opened the control settings for the People Picker field, then set "Default Value Source" to "specify default value" and then entered my email address, previewed the form and voila!

Hi, thank you for your response. Do you know how to set a default value coming from another field (calculated field) in a people picker field ? Thank you.
