Advanced Editor - Custom column referencing another table

Hi,

 

My table source is from SharePoint List and the selected column - ParticipantsPickerStringId is showing in "List" by default. After extracted value, it shows the concat IDs. How to lookup the user's info from Sharepoint List- UserInformationList by using ID as key?

@XIOFEN_LIM , not very clear. You should split the list into rows to that each row have one id.

 

Or use split by delimiter into rows

Thanks @amitchandak , 
I get your point. Will try for it.
Before this i was think for a way to direct lookup info from other table based on the list in selected column.
