Hi Dinesh,
I noticed that you have worked with EntityReference class,
> Firstly I assume the entity is your retrieved result, so the lookup field retrieve code would be below:
EntityReference lookup = entity.GetAttributeValue<EntityReference>("cor_lookup");
> then the set code for your new customerorder_child record would be below:
customerorder_child["cor_lookup"] = new EntityReference(lookup.LogicalName, lookup.Id);
> If you would like to view the updated lookup field name, you should execute service.Retrieve() again.
Best Regards,
Leo
Hi
The issue for you is that on an Update, you will only get a few information in the property bag, such as the GUID and the updated field.
If you need the hole entity, as you do in your case, you will need to do a Service.Retrieve() call, like this:
Entity contact = service.Retrieve("account", account.Id, coulmnSet);
Here the parameters are the logicalname of the entity you want to retrieve, the id of the entity you want to retrieve, and the columnset that you want to retrieve (The fields on the account you need to duplicate. If all just set it to True)
Please make as suggested answer if it solves your issue.
