    getting prevalues of checklist

    Hello, I have checklist that I'm using as additional property in member type I'm trying to get the checklist prevalues and I always get empty list. my steps are

    1. get the member var mem = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.MemberService.GetByUsername(email);

    2. get the property type id of the checklist var id = mem.Properties.First(x => x.Alias == "selectedCategories").PropertyType.Id

    3. get the prevalues var prevalues = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.DataTypeService.GetPreValuesByDataTypeId(id)

    when I'm following this steps on content type and not member type it is working fine

    Hi Ronen

    What if you try to get prevalues with this code:

    var dataType = ApplicationContext.Services.DataTypeService.GetDataTypeDefinitionByName("example");
var preValues = ApplicationContext.Services.DataTypeService.GetPreValuesCollectionByDataTypeId(dataType.Id);

    Try to use "GetDataTypeDefinitionByName("My Datatype Name")" method for getting dataType definition, then use this id for getting prevalues.

    Thanks

    Alex

    mem.SetValue("selectedCategories", string.Join(",",IdOfCheckBoxListItems)); ApplicationContext.Current.Services.MemberService.Save(mem);

    Did you solve the issue with saving the checkbox list value? Can you share?

    Hi Alex It worked for me like that:

    var selectedCategories = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.DataTypeService.GetAllDataTypeDefinitions().First(x => x.Name == "Member - Selected Categories");

    var preValueId1 = ApplicationContext.Current.Services.DataTypeService.GetPreValuesCollectionByDataTypeId(selectedCategories.Id).PreValuesAsDictionary.Where(x => memberViewModel.SelectedCategories.Contains(x.Value.Value)).Select(y => y.Value.Id);

    member.SetValue("selectedCategories", string.Join(",", preValueId1));

    where "Member - Selected Categories" is the name of the checkbox list
