Making SharePoint Lookup field multi selection in code with PNP/SP

Question

I am trying to make a lookup field that will allow multiple selections:

ler.list.fields.inBatch(batchCreate).createFieldAsXml(`<Field Name="${strings.Committees}" DisplayName="${strings.Committees}" Type="Lookup" List="{${lookupID}}" ShowField="Title" AllowMultipleVaues="true"/>`);

Use Type="LookupMulti" and instead AllowMultipleVaues="TRUE" use Mult="TRUE"

<Field Name="${strings.Committees}" DisplayName="${strings.Committees}" Type="LookupMulti" List="{${lookupID}}" ShowField="Title" Mult="TRUE" />
