Item Advanced Search return Site Category
Hi,
I'm developing an ASP.NET 4 C# Web Application using SuiteTalk, and I'm trying to retrieve all Inventory Items and their associated SiteCategory.
I'm using an Advanced Item Search to specify the search criteria and the fields returned.
When I retrieve 500 items with the "returnSearchColumns = false", the response takes about 5 minutes and I'm able to extract the necessary Item information and SiteCategory.internalId's associated to each item. This all works well.
When I switch to "returnSearchColumns = true", only returning the fields I specify, the 500 items only take about 1.5 minutes. The only downside is that I can't get the SiteCategory.internalId value(s) for each item. I'd like to use this method to save time and resources, if I can get it to work.
