How do you add a People Picker to an Infopath for SharePoint Office 365

Does anyone know how to add a people picker to an Infopath for to use in SharePoint O365?

 

This should be something very easy to do, but I can't find where to add this.

    You find it in the controls  (sorry for the german screenshot)

    I often work with this controll in my InfoPath Forms.

    It works for both a custom InfoPath form, as well as an InfoPath form backed list item (custom form).   I just tried both and they worked.   Are you getting an error?  Can you provide more details as to what is not working?  

     

    Perhaps, you are trying to promote the person field as a column in your forms library?  If so, that is not supported, but there are workarounds/hacks if you have the technical chops to implement and don't mind have a workflow run every time the field changes.

      It's not that it isn't working. I can't find out where the people picker is. I would think it would be in the controls list
