Copy Primary column data to Contact list column

Praneeth Modali

Today we have a primary column with the user information but defined as Text field. We are looking to have it as Contact list but as it is a primary column we cannot change.

As a work around we created a new column but how can we make sure that column is filled in from Primary column ? I see there is no option to make it as mandate field so looking to automate and copy the field

Hi @Praneeth Modali

I hope you're well and safe!

You can add a formula in the Contact Column and make it a Column Formula, and then it will always populate the same information as in the Primary column.

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!
