CIF Product Retriever - extendProductQuery for ComplexT

[ruchim71073425]

Hi all,

I have to customize the CIF Product List Component to get some extra fields, like description, short description to be displayed.

I haven't been able to find an example of extending the query with complex attributes.

So, what I can do with simple fields is:

productsRetriever.extendProductQueryWith(p -> p.metaDescription());

I can't do the same with complex fields, like

productsRetriever.extendProductQueryWith(p -> p.shortDescription());

The error message I get is [{"message":"Field \"short_description\" of type \"ComplexTextValue\" must have a sub selection."

Any help will be appreciated here.

Thanks

Ruchi

You can add complex fields in below mentioned way

productRetriever.extendProductQueryWith(p -> p.addCustomObjectField("shortDescription", i -> i.addField("field1").addField("field2").addField("field3"))

field1, field2, field3 denotes the sub attributes of the field shortDescription

Thank you. Given short description is not a custom field, will it work?

So, checked for the OOTB complex field, 

productsRetriever.extendProductQueryWith(p -> p.shortDescription(item -> item.html())
