Very strange behaviour. It’s not working when I add it in my project.

Is there something I need to check otherwise?

Check to ensure that values are being written to the correct row in the User Profiles table.  
You can force that by applying row owners in that table.

My Observation:

I can see that selected creators is getting stored against correct username in use table.

When I switch between accounts it is not clearing the values but the previously selected values are still stored

While in your template I can see that the selected users value is shown but the previously selected users values are cleared.

how would this work?

I observe that in creators table the Relation column is not re setting to the selected users data, I believe that is creating the issue?

Would that be an issue?

They’re not, they just appear to be. This is because I used User Specific Columns in the User Profiles table. So when you switch users, you only see values that have been set by the user you are viewing as. The important thing is the values should be in the row that corresponds to the user you are viewing as, eg:

- Viewing as first user:

- Viewing as second user:

It would make it impossible to write to or reference the wrong row in the User Profile table.

I think I put it wrongly.

When I am in user 1 – It shows the selected users to me in the table.

When I switch to user 2 – it shows blank → after I select the users it shows the newly selected users in the table

But In UI it shows the users selected by previous logged in user → these cant be unselected either.

That suggests that your Collection Item Click action might not be setup correctly.

Okay, I see the problem.  
It’s the relation in the Creators table. It only works for me because I made the array columns in the User Profile row User Specific, so it always matches the correct row. Because (I assume) yours are not user specific, the relation matches all rows. Easy fix is to make those columns user specific. Although to be honest that is a bit fragile. To be honest, if I was to do this again I would sit the screen on a single row helper table - that would make it a lot simpler.

How do you do this? I am not able to get option to make it user specific.

To make it User Specific you would need to delete it and create it again.
