Field Type fields not showing up in PIM feed

I'm attempting to use a custom field type with the ConcatProvider (https://doc.dynamicweb.com/documentation-9/platform/platform-tools/field-types) in a PIM feed.

The PIM feed UI supports adding the new field.

However, it doesn't show up in the Model in the template. For example, for the image above, Model.Products.FirstOrDefault().ProductFields.Values only has Format, Clone, and AppAbrv.

I'll work around it for now so it's not a pressing need, but it would nice to have custom field types added to the Model (unless I'm overlooking something and it is available).

Thanks,

Scott

Hi Scott,

I have run test on my Platform DW9.10.10, with both -Concat and -Calculated field provider, and that works fine.

What DW version are you using ?

Hi Søren,

You're exactly right. Thanks for confirming. It looks like I didn't rebuild the index in-between during my test. Now that I've tried again and run the index, everything works as it should.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Scott
