Unable to populate a Person or Group type field for a list in sharepoint from Fusion

I have created a Fusion scenario to add a new item to a list in sharepoint.  All fields populate as expected except Requestor which is a Person or Group Type.   If I subsequently edit the item directly in the sharepoint list, I can enter the same name I pass from Fusion, the name is found and after I select it the field is populated.  

 

My feeling is that sharepoint is expecting a specific format for the name but I'm unable to determine what is expected.

I found that you need to use the raw value for the label People field to pass back the number, in this case Our field was named Requestor the raw value was "RequestorLookupId"
