How to list all selected interests for a contact

You can list all selected interests for a specific contact using the ContactInterestHelper class. You can achieve the same with the PersonInterestHelper class. The helper classes provide the functionality that combines the MDO lists and what to select (they combine entity sub-collections with MDO lists).

Code

using SuperOffice;
using SuperOffice.CRM.Entities;
using SuperOffice.CRM.Lists;
using (SoSession newSession = SoSession.Authenticate("sam", "sam"))
{
  //Retrieve a Contact Based on the Contact ID
  Contact newContact = Contact.GetFromIdxContactId(10);

  //Get the list of heading items that are currently selected,
  // (have link rows to the parent entity)
  List<ISoListHeading> newLstHdItms = newContact.InterestHelper.SelectedHeadingItems;

  //Get the list of root items that are currently selected,
  // (have link rows to the parent entity)
  List<ISoListItem> newLstItms = newContact.InterestHelper.SelectedRootItems;
}

Walk-through

In the code above, once we have created an instance of the Contact entity by using the Contact class, we use the contact’s InterestHelper to retrieve the selected interests. As shown above, we can retrieve the interest in 2 ways:

using the SelectHeadingItems property
using the SelectRootItems property
