Update Fields from code

                var li = await _contentManager.NewAsync("PromotionProduct");
                var lip = li.As<PromotionProductPart>();
                var pi = new ProductImage();
                pi.Paths = new[] { "path1.jpg", "path2.jpg" };
                lip.Apply("ProductImage", pi);
                var image = lip.Get<ProductImage>("ProductImage");

                var a = new TextField();
                a.Text = "Test text";
                lip.Apply("SKU", a);

                var b = new DateField();
                b.Value = new DateTime().AddSeconds(1223345);
                lip.Apply("Date", b);

                var c = new NumericField();
                c.Value = 999;
                lip.Apply("Price", c);

               li.Apply(lip);
                await _contentManager.CreateAsync(li);
