You can reference a group as a peopleArray value by creating a constant with a User or Group data type and specifying your desired group as its value. Wrap this value with the topeople()
function.
getdistinctusers()
will only return the first 10,000 users.
getdistinctusers()
cannot be used to define a column of process report data or in a process event.
You can copy and paste these examples into the Expression Rule Designer to see how this works.
Using it in a script task:
getdistinctusers(topeople( cons!group ))
when stored as pv!multipleuser
returns "user.name1", "user.name2", ...
topeople(): Wrap the value of your constant with this function when referencing a group for the peopleArray parameter.
