Thank you to everyone for your passion, collaboration, and support. Here’s to building an even stronger community together in the year ahead!
Season’s greetings to you and yours! As we head into the holidays (December 24 – January 4), we want to take a moment to celebrate the incredible strength and collaboration within our community. Even during the break, you can continue to benefit from connecting with peers, searching related threads, posting your questions, and marking helpful replies as “Accepted” in the Support Community.
Please note our dedicated team will be on reduced coverage during this time, and regular responsiveness will resume on January 5. Wishing you a joyful and restful holiday season!

Specifying Columns on Contact Search
We are having some trouble getting back a result when we attempt to use a ContactSearchAdvanced object. We are using .NET for our development environment.
If we use a ContactSearch object and specify the criteria, we get back the records we want. But if we try to move that ContactSearch object into a ContactSearchAdvanced object so we can specify the columns we want back, we never get a result set.
If we don't specify the .columns of a ContactSearchAdvanced object, we get back the same results as the ContactSearch itself.
We are NOT referencing a saved search ID. We want our code to ultimately call result columns from the base Contact record and a Joined table. Our code will be more portable if we don't reference a saved search.
