I am trying to update an email send definition with a sender profile via the c# SOAP API library. I have my email send definition object, and I have a sender profile object. I'm assigning the sender profile to the esd.SenderProfile property, and then I perform the update call. I get error code 2, which is the generic "unexpected error" exception.

Any thoughts on this? The code is pretty simple, but some snippets are below to help with troubleshooting.

Adding the Sender Profile to an existing Email Send Definition:

SenderProfile selectedSenderProfile = (SenderProfile)lvwSenderProfiles.SelectedObject;
esd.SenderProfile = selectedSenderProfile;

Then the ESD object eventually makes its way to the update call:

m_exactTargetFramework.Update(new UpdateOptions(), new APIObject[] { esd }, out requestId, out status);

  • Are you setting the SendClassification? The SenderProfile is a property of that Object.

  • There are several other discussions on SFSE about creating send definitions with a classification: salesforce.stackexchange.com/…

  • Thanks @AdamSpriggs. I figured it out, and it was amateur hour on my part. I am retrieving an existing ESD, and was using that object for the update with no other modifications than the new sender profile. The light bulb went off that the property "IDSpecified" would not be set to true, and therefore the update will not work. Once I set that property to true, the update worked. Thanks for the help!

The "ObjectID" and "IDSpecified" properties of the object to be updated needs to be set for update calls to work properly.
