Userscript: Autofill Sharepoint User list Combobox Filter

Question

I am trying to autofill an MS Sharepoint form with a userscript/jQuery. The standard inputs and comboboxes are not an issue using the standard $( selector ).val( value ); or clicking an element in the generated list. The issue arises with selecting the user from a dynamic combobox that seems to be a more complex component and not a standard combobox. This powerapps/appmagic? field dynamically fetches the user list based on a filter value entered into an input field. I have tried setting the input field using .val( value ) and .attr( 'value', value ) as well as manually filling the span fields displayed when the input is hidden. I have attempted manually triggering the change, keyup, keydown, keypress and input events on the input field and document, but the dynamic list is not populated or displayed to allow me to select an item from it. If I manually add or remove a letter to the filter after my pre-populated value, it works as expected so something behaves differently when I dynamically populate the input field.

Under the DOM inspector, the reactive event seems to be document.input as disabling this stops the population of the combobox under any condition.

Does anyone have experience with these fields and know how I can dynamically populate this input and have the list generate?

Answer 1

Is it like you want to dynamically populate UserList combobox based on an input entered in an input field or if this is not the right understanding,could you be more precise in the explanation. Thanks

Answer 2

Could you please try setting the Items property of UserList combobox as

    Filter(comboboxlist,enteredvaluecolumn = Inputfield.Text)

where comboboxlist is the list used to populate the combobox, enteredvaluecolumn is the column in comboboxlist corresponding to the entered value in the input field and Inputfield is the input field.
