Populating Multi_contact_List column through Alteryx

kpatel22

I have an Alteryx designer reading in tasks from multiple smartsheet schedules that have a responsibles column with multiple contacts. I want to rewrite those contacts into the one schedule I am writing to, but when the contact is read in, it is converted to TEXT_NUMBER and Alteryx won't let me write to the Multi Contact List column in smartsheet. How can I get and keep the contacts as a objectValue so that I can write them back into the final sheet as contacts instead of TEXT_NUMBERS through alteryx?

I'm sure it's related to how the API works with Alteryx. This would be an Alteryx support question.

The API looks at all these differently

• 0: CONTACT_LIST, PICKLIST, or TEXT_NUMBER.
• 1: MULTI_CONTACT_LIST.
• 2: MULTI_PICKLIST.
