How to list all selected interests for a contact (services)

• 1 minute to read

You can use SuperOffice.Services and SuperOffice.Services.Impl DLLs to list all selected interests for a specific contact.

Code

using SuperOffice;
using SuperOffice.CRM.Services;

Console.Write("Please Enter the UserName :- ");
string userName = Console.ReadLine();

Console.Write("Please enter the password :- ");
string passWord = Console.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine();

using (SoSession newSession = SoSession.Authenticate(userName, passWord))
{
  //Retrieve a Contact Entity using the Contact Agent
  ContactAgent newConAgt = new ContactAgent();
  ContactEntity newConEnt = newConAgt.GetContactEntity(10);

  //Retrieve all available Interests for a Contact
  SelectableMDOListItem[] newSelMdoLstItms = newConEnt.Interests;

  foreach(SelectableMDOListItem newSelMdoLstItm in newSelMdoLstItms)
    {
      //Retrieve only the selected Interest of the Contact
      if(newSelMdoLstItm.Selected)
        Console.WriteLine(newSelMdoLstItm.Name);
    }

  Console.ReadLine();
}

Walk-through

Using the ContactAgent, we first retrieve a Contact entity. Next is to retrieve the available interests of the contact. We use the Interests property of the entity and retrieve the interest list into a SelectableMDOListItem array.

By iterating on the array, we can retrieve details of each interest available. Since we want only the selected interest, we add an if-condition to filter out any item that is not selected.

Comparing the Interest tab of the Company card in the SuperOffice and our obtained output we can confirm our results.
