Hi  experts,

I create one entity as this:

6082.entity1.png

Then I create another one, there is one look up field I want to look up the NAME in the first entity,

6082.entity2.png

Then I open it in excel want to choose the look up value, but I can only choose the PRIMARY NAME,I don’t know which step is missed.

Thanks a lot.

    Hi

    When you select a lookup value, it will only set the Primary Name, it will not set the GUID tot the column.

    Whats displayed in your screenshot is the correct behavior

    Hope the helps
