[BUG]

[SiebeAmexio]

Context

As there is no option to set a default column value for a person field in SharePoint we're using PnP Powershell to perform this action. We have users following a procedure on a weekly basis to add a default column value to a person field on a folder. In short the procedure is as follows:

1. Get the ID of the list
2. Get the folder name in that list
3. Clear the default column value of the person field on that folder
4. Set a new default column value for this person field on that specific folder

Expected behavior

Normally this works as expected and the user is set as value in the person field.

Actual behavior

In a document library containing multiple folders (Just as all the other ones we have) we now receive the error "Error applying default column values" when using the cmdlet "Clear-PnpDefaultColumnValues

Steps to reproduce behavior

See image ->

What is the version of the Cmdlet module you are running?

Version 2.10.0 that was last updated 2 months ago. https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/PnP.PowerShell/2.10.0

Which operating system/environment are you running PnP PowerShell on?

• Windows

Heya and thanks for the bug report! Tried reproducing this but couldn't. When did it start happening? With 2.10.0?

Hello Antti, Thank you for your quick reply! We noticed it last week since a user reported this issue to us. They don't have this for each document library. On most of them, we don't get this error. Me as a SharePoint admin tested this as well and got the same error. Not all of the users have the same PnP Powershell version. Kind regards, [cid:14062ff0-07d8-46a7-a4c9-5010bf3944c4] Siebe Stuyck M365 Consultant, AmeXio T: +32 16 44 25 10 | M: +32 472 07 56 97 Gaston Geenslaan 10 | 3001 Heverlee | Belgium http://www.amexio.fr<http://www.amexio.fr/en/home>
