How do you map a user picklist field to another user picklist field.

How do you map a user picklist field to another user picklist field.

In Zoho Projects, I'm trying to map a custom field (user picklist) in Task Details to a field (user picklist) in the Project Details. How do you get the two to map to each other?

This is what I currently have that works for my other fields but doesn't work for the user picklist: 

params.put("custom_fields",{"UDF_USER1":ManagedBy});

When I do a direct mapping I get this error:

{"error":{"status_code":403,"instance": {"message":"Data type mismatch","field_name":"UDF_USER1"},"title":"INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE","type":"FIELDS_VALIDATION_ERROR"}}

I use the linux desktop app and sometimes the Android app. I assume that the sync failed at some point and was unable to merge the two versions together. But I'm afraid to add anything else to my notebook because if it can't properly sync 5 notebooks with only a handful of notes each, what will happen when I have hundreds of notes and I lose
