I have created on custom setting whose API name is "testCustom__c" In that custom setting i have created one text area field whose API name is "FieldsToSearch__c". Now i have added one data set into that custom setting. 

Name: "Fields"
FieldsToSearch: "Name,MobileNumber"

Now i want to get values which i have in FieldsToSearch in My apex class. How can i get this?

How about for hierarchical:

testCustom__c settings = testCustom__c.getInstance(); // for org wide
if( settings.Id == null ) settings = testCustom__c.getInstance(UserInfo.getUserId());
String fieldsToSearch = settings.FieldsToSearch__c;

You might also want to check for nulls first

or use SOQL for list (or hierarchy):

Select FieldsToSearch__c From testCustom__c;

  • I got this through SOQL but not using getInstance method. Is there any issue of profile.

  • Can you confirm what type of custom setting it is?

    Be careful with checking settings == null. Need to check settings.Id == null because the no arg getInstance() returns a new object if nothing is defined.

  • What type means?

You can use the following if your custom setting is of list type.

map<string, testCustom__c> mMyCustomValues = testCustom__c.getAll();

or

List<testCustom__c> myCustomValues = textCustom__c.getAll().Values();

Once you have your list/map then loop through and check for values.

I don't believe there is an issue with profile is accessing the values.
