Hi there - I’m trying to do something really basic. Assigning a basecamp to-do to a user. Which ID should I be using for this field? The previous step in this flow is to search for the user in basecamp. I’ve tried Name, ID, email address, Attachable Sgid,,, no luck

Please give that a try, and let me know how it goes! 😊
