Getting error when try to update RecordType field using Patner API

Errors were found on item 0
Error code is: INVALID_FIELD
Error message: The external foreign key reference does not reference a valid entity: RecordType

How to fix, please help.

for all foreignKey fields you need to set the Id field to the salesforce.com ID of the related record. (unless you want to use externalIds, but i don't think you do).

So set the RecordTypeId field, and for your lead generator question, set the lead_xxx__c field to the ID of the related custom object.

Thanks for reply. Record type worked fine. How to find ID for custom fields.
Please help.

if you created a custom lookup field, the field itself is the id field (e..g if your custom field is foo__c, then set foo__c to the related Id.

I found ID for custom field , I was passing wrong value. Lead_Generator_Last_Name__c
Thanks very much for your great help.
