Hi Folks,

I am currently using SharePoint infopath-2013 form in my SharePoint list. I need help in this part as mention below:

Query: Auto Populate certain fields ( textboxes ) based on user input in another text box.

Example: If User enters number in textbox -ID, then remaining textboxes such as product name, product region etc... must fetch values from another data source list.

Issue: I have created the secondary connection as list and tried using action (set field value ) for that text box - ID. When i gave the manual input in text box - ID , values are not populating in remaining textboxes.

Please help me out with your comments.

    Hi @keerthana k ,

    When creating an InfoPath form for a SharePoint list, you may need to bring in SharePoint lookup fields into the form. Did your first data connection succeed?

    Please refer to this blog for more information about how to pull in SharePoint lookup “Additional Fields” into InfoPath form:
