Search contacts by business foundation field value
Hello!
Take a look at this
http://sdk.episerver.com/commerce/1.1.2/Content/Developers%20Guide/Tutorials/Training/TrainBusinessFoundation.htm
I think this small snippet below should get you on the right track
FilterElementCollection filterElementCustomer = new FilterElementCollection();
//Or use your custom business foundation field as filter element
filterElementCustomer.Add(FilterElement.EqualElement("Email", email));
EntityObject[] sortedListCustomer = BusinessManager.List
(CustomerContact.ClassName, filterElementCustomer.ToArray());
EntityObject customer = sortedListCustomer.FirstOrDefault();
if (customer != null)
{
customer.Properties["YourCustomBusinessFoundationField"].Value = "YourCustomValue"
Mediachase.BusinessFoundation.Data.Business.BusinessManager.Update(customer);
}

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your reply. Using a filterelement I got it working.
var filterElement = new FilterElement("FBUserId", FilterElementType.Equal, (object)fbUserId);
var filterElementArray = new[] { filterElement };
var entityObjectArray = BusinessManager.List("Contact", filterElementArray);
if (entityObjectArray.Length == 1)
{ ... }

Hello all,
I want to be able to load a specific contact from the system by a value stored in a specific business foundation field. (in this case I want to load the contact by the facebook ID)
I have found a function that I think should be able to do this, but I have no idea how it works.
Can I use the CustomerContext.Current.GetContactsByPattern(string pattern) function to search for contacts? And what would the pattern look like?
