Hi Community,
i just try to concatenate two string fields into third field using plugin. But its not working with below code
if (entity.LogicalName == "new_tetest")
try
{
Entity test = new Entity("new_tetest");
String fname = test.GetAttributeValue<String>("new_firstname");
String lname = test.GetAttributeValue<String>("new_lastname");
string concat = fname + lname;
concat = String.Concat(fname, lname);
test["new_fullname"] = concat;
service.Create(test);
}
catch (FaultException<OrganizationServiceFault> ex)
{
throw new InvalidPluginExecutionException("invalidException", ex);
}

Hi Chaitu ,
If you are facing any difficulty with plugin , you can also create calculated field for the full name .
see below post -
Hi Chaitu,
You plugin code looks fine. You need to check if you have registered it correctly and if it is executing or not. You could use throw new InvalidPluginExecutionException("invalidException", ex); on the top to confirm if plugin is executing or not.
By the way, you can achieve the concatenation by simple workflow or a calculated field-
Hope this helps.
Try with this -

lname = entity.GetAttributeValue<string>("new_lastname");

test["new_fullname"] = fname + " " + lname;
service.Create(test);

throw new InvalidPluginExecutionException("invalidException", ex);
}

Hi,

Where are you checking this concatenation ?? it is creating a new record of your entity, are you not able to see any new record created for your entity having this combined value ??
