This step-by-step tutorial covers both out-of-the-box (OOB) and PCF-based solutions, helping you select multiple users in a lookup column by using: • A many-to-many (N:N) relationship • A Subgrid component • A modern, user-friendly PCF Multiselect Lookup control You will learn how to: • Build an N:N relationship between Dataverse tables • Use Subgrid to simulate multi-select lookup behavior • Download and install a community PCF control • Configure end-to-end multi-select lookup using systemuser, logical names, and relationship metadata • Bind the PCF control to a single-line text column • Configure classic form control properties (link entity, attribute names, relationship names) • Render a modern dropdown-style multi-select experience 🎓 KEY TAKEAWAYS ➤ Multi-select lookup is not available out-of-the-box for lookup columns in Dataverse. ➤ The recommended & secure method is using a Many-to-Many (N:N) relationship. ➤ Use a Subgrid to allow users to add multiple related records. ➤ PCF Multiselect Lookup Control offers a modern dropdown-style experience. ➤ The PCF control requires:  • A single-line text column (reference)  • Link entity logical name  • Primary name attribute  • ID attribute (GUID field)  • Relationship name + relationship entity ➤ PCF controls provide better UI but may carry long-term maintenance risks. ➤ Microsoft may introduce native multi-select lookup in the future — so choose wisely. ⏱️ CHAPTERS WITH TIMESTAMPS 00:00 • Introduction – Multi-Select Lookup Problem 00:37 • Lookup Column Limitation in Dataverse 01:12 • Demonstration of Multi-Select Lookup Outcome 02:00 • Two Approaches: Subgrid vs PCF Control 03:20 • Dataverse Table Setup (Notification Table) 04:30 • Creating Many-to-Many Relationship 06:00 • Adding Subgrid Component on Form 08:10 • Building Model-Driven App & Testing Subgrid 10:05 • Assigning Multiple Users via Subgrid 11:20 • Why PCF Control (Pros & Cons) 12:00 • Introducing PCF Gallery Multi-Select Component 13:05 • Download & Import PCF Solution 14:30 • Creating Single-Line Text Column for PCF 15:25 • Adding Column to Form 16:40 • Switching to Classic Form Editor 17:20 • Adding "End-to-End Multiselect" Control 18:35 • Configuring PCF Control (All 5 Parameters):   • Link Entity Name   • Link Entity Attribute   • ID Attribute   • Relationship Name   • Relationship Entity Name 23:10 • Publishing Customizations 24:00 • Demo: Multi-Select Dropdown UI 25:30 • Viewing Records & Verifying Assigned Users 26:30 • Final Thoughts & Best Practices 27:15 • Closing Note & Training Information 🔗 IMPORTANT LINKS ⬤ PCF Gallery – Multiselect Lookup by Alex (Download From here)  https://pcf.gallery/n-to-n-multiselect/ ⬤ GitHub Repository – End-to-End MultiSelect PCF  https://github.com/ashlega/ITAintBori... ⬤ Power Platform Trainings  https://www.powerplatformtrainings.com ⬤ Follow Dhruvin on Instagram    / powerplatformguy   ⬤ Follow Dhruvin on Twitter    / dhruvinshah16   🙌 CREDITS • Video Creator: Dhruvin Shah • PCF Component Author: Alex Shlega (PCF Gallery contributor) • Platform: Microsoft Power Apps | Dataverse | Model-Driven Apps #Dataverse #PowerApps #ModelDrivenApps #PCF #PowerPlatform #Dynamics365 #LookupColumn #MultiSelectLookup #MicrosoftDataverse #PowerAppsTutorial #LowCode #Makers
