Hello,

We have been using the Salesforce API for some time now. Recently we have encountered an issue in accessing fields of an entity, Contact.

While reading the contact information we used to fetch the values of 'HomePhone' and 'OtherPhone' along with other fields. However now when we try to get contact information, it is throwing an error with following message.

No such column 'HomePhone' on entity 'Contact'. If you are attempting to use a custom field, be sure to append the '__c' after the custom field name.Please reference your WSDL or the describe call for the appropriate names.

The problem it seems here is, those fields (HomePhone and OtherPhone) are made disabled rather inaccessible possibly through 'Set Field-Level Security' option of the field.

Is this correct behavior?

• If NO, what should happen? 
• If YES, how to tackle this issue?

Please advise me.

Thanks
Ashish
