Hello everyone,

I'm making a plugin and one of the steps is to set the value of "cms_content" attribute of type multiple line text in "contractAgreementClause" entity from attribute "cms_content" of the same type in "Clause" entity .

I'm using the .Attributes.Add method but not sure how to fill it's parameters

This is the code I wrote but it only returns the logical name of the field and not it's content/value

contractAgreementClauseRecord.Attributes.Add(contractAgreementClauseEntity.contractAgreementClausesContent, clauseEntity.content);

Thanks in advance,
Rand

Hi Rand,

I'm not sure what the names of the entities and attributes are, but based on the names you provided the code should look like this:

//Directly passes the attribute value of an entity to another entity

contractAgreementClause["cms_content"] = Clasuse.Attributes["cms_content"]

//Use an intermediate value

var intermediate = Clasuse.GetAttributeValue<string>("cms_content");

contractAgreementClause["cms_content"] = "intermediate"

Hello,

Don't use Attributes - there is an easier way. If you want to set a field to a value you can use something like:

record["field"] = "New Value";
