Considerations for Person or Group Between SharePoint and Salesforce

Note the limitations of two data type fields when using SharePoint Online and Salesforce.

Required Editions

Available in: both Salesforce Classic and Lightning Experience
Available in: Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer Editions
  • The SharePoint Online “Lookup (multi-select)” data type with text
  • The SharePoint Online “Person or Group” data type with indirect lookup data

If you use these data type columns in SharePoint Online, the column values from SharePoint are not returned to Salesforce.
