Add Bank Account Payment Profile Using C# SDK

[ghartsho]

After playing around with the Authorize.Net CIM XML API C# sample code, I started using the Authorize.Net C# SDK. I am able to add credit cards and bank accounts to customer profiles using the CIM XML API sample code. I don't see how to add bank accounts using the SDK though.

Adding bank account with CIM XML API:

...
customerPaymentProfileType new_payment_profile = new customerPaymentProfileType();
paymentType new_payment = new paymentType();

bankAccountType new_bank = new bankAccountType();
new_bank.nameOnAccount = "xyz";
new_bank.accountNumber = "4111111";
new_bank.routingNumber = "325070760";
new_payment.Item = new_bank;

new_payment_profile.payment = new_payment;

createCustomerPaymentProfileRequest request = new createCustomerPaymentProfileRequest();
XmlAPIUtilities.PopulateMerchantAuthentication((ANetApiRequest)request);

request.customerProfileId = profile_id.ToString();
request.paymentProfile = new_payment_profile;
request.validationMode = validationModeEnum.testMode;
...

Using the SDK I only see a `.AddCreditCard()` method, but no way to add a bank account. When I loop through all my `PaymentProfiles` It throws an exception when it comes across a bank account too:

CustomerGateway cg = new CustomerGateway("xxx", "yyy");

foreach (string cid in cg.GetCustomerIDs())
{
Customer c = cg.GetCustomer(cid);
foreach (PaymentProfile pp in c.PaymentProfiles)
{
Console.WriteLine(pp.ToString());
}
}

Exception:

Unable to cast object of type 'AuthorizeNet.APICore.bankAccountMaskedType' to type 'AuthorizeNet.APICore.creditCardMaskedType'.

How do I add a bank account to a CIM profile using the Authorize.Net C# SDK?

Hi ghartsho,

Thanks for bringing this up. It looks like there may be an issue with the SDK. I'm forwarding this on to our development teams.

Thanks,

I wrote up a little walk through on adding bank account support, it involves downloading the source code and modifying a number of files.  If you are interested check out http://stackoverflow.com/a/11475815/328968

Thanks for the walkthrough on this.  Is there going to be a new version of the SDK released to reflect this change?  I have linked several SDK classes in my project and I try to avoid modifying these types of libraries as best practice.  

I'm using the version from Anet's download section.  anet_dotnet_sdk-1.7.1.zip - C#

Is this issue fixed? Im facing a similar problem while fetching the customer details using CIM api.

Hello @nik_0811 

Are you using the latest SDK from GitHub?
