UGC Record Object

All records in UGC are described with a common Record object that has the following signature:

Record

• ID (int)
• RecordTypeName (string)
• CreatedOn (DateTime)
• CreatedBy (int)
• ModifiedOn (DateTime)
• ModifiedBy (int)
• State (RecordState)
• Reason (string)
• Flagged (bool)
• Spam (bool)
• Illegal (bool)
• AbuseCount (int)
• Values (Dictionary<string, object>)
  • Key/value Dictionary of all of the user defined field values for the record.
  • There is a default property for this collection on the record class itself, eg: record[“FieldName”]
  • Accessing a field that does not exist on the record using the default property will return null, but this will throw a keyNotFound exception if this is done using the Values property. It is recommended to use the Values.TryKeyValue() method in this case.
  • All custom field values, apart from the ‘file’ types, are typed as strings.
  • Dates are in the format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss tt.
  • All file type fields are of the FileServiceMetaData type, with the following properties:
    • FileService
      • Enum of the Agility.UGC.API.FileServiceType
      • AmazonS3 = 0, YouTube = 1, Flickr = 2, Image = 3, Video = 4
    • FileServiceState
    • New= 0, Unprocessed = 1, Processed = 2, Error = 3
    • OriginalFilePath
    • The AmazonS3 path to where the file was originally uploaded to
    • Custom File Service Values
  • All of the other values, accessible via record.FileField.FileServiceValue or record.FileField[“FileServiceFieldValue”]. These values are specific to each file service, and may or may not be available depending on the state of the object in the file service.
