Clear People picker field in PowerApps

[Yajjoj]

I am tried many ways to clear the filed in SharePoint list using PowerApps and make it null on the record.
but unfortunately, I could not do that.

## first way I tried:

    Set(
    BlankPerson,
    Table(
        {
            Claims: Blank(),
            DisplayName: Blank(),
            Email: Blank(),
            Department: Blank(),
            Picture: Blank(),
            JobTitle: Blank()
        }
    )
    );

    Patch(
        'InvoicePaymentRequests',
        {ID: InvoicesListGallery.Selected.ID},
        {SecondApprover: BlankPerson()}
    );

**I am getting mismatch data type (Record - Table) **

## Second way I tried

Patch(
        'InvoicePaymentRequests',
        {ID: InvoicesListGallery.Selected.ID},
            {
                SecondApprover: {
                    '@odata.type': "#Microsoft.Azure.Connectors.SharePoint.SPListExpandedUser",
                    Claims: Blank(),
                    DisplayName: Blank(),
                    Email: Blank(),
                    Department: Blank(),
                    Picture: Blank(),
                    JobTitle: Blank()
                }
            }
    );
    Refresh(InvoicePaymentRequests)

**this one it is running but will not clear the field value on the list.**

## Third way

    
    Patch(
        'InvoicePaymentRequests',
        {ID: InvoicesListGallery.Selected.ID},
            {
                SecondApprover: Blank()
            }
    );

**also did not work**

any suggestions?

thanks and best regards

Is the people picker field in form as a combo box?

If yes you don't need to do anything code wise. Just enable Formula level error management from advance settings in your PowerApps. Save and publish the app. and done.

Yes it is combo box, but still not working even after enabling the Formula level error management 😞

Right now it is the only way to make person field blank. It works for me. 

You can also try this.

Go to the Datacard of that people picker field. Select the datacard not the combo box. Go to it's update property.

Write:

If(Isblank(datacardname),Blank(),datacardname.selected)

Checkout this. You must be missing something. There is no need to write complicated patch code to write blank value.

I add it to the datacard as below on update property : 

Spoiler

If(Isblank(DataCardValue42),Blank(),DataCardValue42.selected)

and it did not work, I even make it Blank() only and still not owrking.
am I missing somthing ?

Checkout the link i shared before. So many people face the same issue. The only solution right now is enable formula level error management. And save the app. And reload. 

I am sorry i couldn't be more helpful.
