Hey Madhusudana_Yadav_N ,
You mean you have a a list/library with a fied of type "User/ Group" and you want to set this value from your SPFX solution?
If yes, then you can use the PnPJS library to update it. Considering you have a field "Owner" of type User/ Group and a "Members" field that supports multiple Users/ Groups, you can update it using:
sp.web.lists.getByTitle(<ListTitle>).items.getById(<ItemID>).update({
OwnerId: <UserId>,
MembersId: {
results: [<User1ID>, <Group1Id>]
}
})
So basically, you need to append "Id" to the end of the field name and set it to ID of the User/ Group you want. If it is a multiple people field, then you have to set it to an object containing a "results" array, in which each value is an user/ group ID.
Hope it helps.
