  Hi Nikhil,

  When you are updating an entity, only fields which have changed are included in the property bag.
  This means that when you reference a field in the property bag, it will only have a value if you have just updated it.

  To get around this you will need to do a retrieve on the entity to get the fields, and generate the full name based on that.

  Entity contact = _sdk.Retrieve("contact", contactId, new ColumnSet("firstname", "lastname"));

  
  

  If this has helped you, please mark as answer, or reply if you need more information. :)
