Strange response from email_address.address

[timmyd87]

Hey team, i'm getting an array of [email, mobile and id] when getting all contacts. I'm saving them to my app with

c.email = (contact.email_address.address if contact.email_address.present?),

but what's being saved is:

(see the values in the [] brackets).

I also reverted to using the raw "primary_email_address.address" but i get the same output.

What's strange to me is using the same method but with 'primary_phone.free_form_number' saves the phone number beautifully.

Am i calling the wrong model to save this? Or could something have changed on Intuit's end?

That is odd. Do you know what the raw XML looks like?

You can Enable Logging or use an HTTP Proxy to view the data.

Thanks @ruckus , Screenshot of XML from logs here:

Which looks fine to me, removing '.address' and just saving what's coming back from the gem using contact.email_address - i get:

Try reading customer.primary_email_address not contact.email_address, like

c.email = (contact.primary_email_address.address if contact.primary_email_address.present?),

I copied and pasted that line above from your message and just noticed the trailing comma , .. ? Whats up with that? Could that be doing the multiple assignment?

It....... it was the comma, i had no idea a simple comma could cause such a fuss, thank you for taking the time to respond @ruckus ... i think it was a hangover from a 'find_or_create_by' action i used previously.
