Update Plugin Triggering on Create

I have a plugin that runs on modifiedon date that gets updated contact entity data for sync to a SQL db.

It works fine on existing records but...

It appears that this plugin runs when a contact is "Created" and causes a Null Exception error.
I'm not sure what field id Null unless its the primaryEntityID (contactid) Perhaps its running before the contact has been added an so has an id??

Any thoughts?

Regards

Hi Stuie,

Which event you registered your pug-in? You need to registered the plugin in post event as you are tracking the modified on date.

Please check in plugin registration tool and update it in post event .

Hope this helps.

The error (shown in a Scribe integration) is below.

Notice this is triggered by Create contact

Hi Stuie,

Could you please debug the plugin and share the exact line where you are getting error.

Also you can enable trace to check the exact error.
