I'm trying to update an Account record using the Force.com Toolkit for .NET. The Account record has custom fields.

I thought the toolkit allowed the [DataMember] attribute to be used, but its not working for me.

Is there any way to specify the custom field name to be used (namespace__Field_Name__c) without having to name my class property that?

There was a Pull request to add this functionality Support for DataMember attributes #126. It was merged in on the 25th of August 2015 to be in the next NuGet release.

From Nuget this should correspond with v1.1.1 onward.

In terms of source code, I can see references to DataMemberAttribute in ModelDescriptionGenerator.GetMemberName. Note that in that method a JsonPropertyAttribute will take precedence to the DataMemberAttribute.

  • I'm using 1.1.1, and yes I saw those references in the code as well, and yet it appears to be ignoring the attributes - at least for the CreateAsync method. – Dale K Feb 3 '16 at 19:23
  • Are you also using the JsonProperty attributes? It might be easiest to diagnose by pulling down the source and stepping through it. – Daniel Ballinger Feb 3 '16 at 19:33
  • Well the JsonProperty attribute works for me, but the DataMember attribute doesn't - however thats not your problem, so I accept your answer. Thanks. – Dale K Feb 4 '16 at 22:44
  • Maybe raise it as an issue on the Github project. Someone there will be well setup to trace the issue. – Daniel Ballinger Feb 4 '16 at 23:31
