Getting the service

Services property

If you wish to use the public access service in a class that inherits from one of the Umbraco base classes (eg. SurfaceController, UmbracoApiController or UmbracoAuthorizedApiController), you can access the public access service through a local Services property:

IPublicAccessService publicAccessService = Services.PublicAccessService;

Dependency Injection

In other cases, you may be able to use Dependency Injection. For instance if you have registered your own class in Umbraco's dependency injection, you can specify the IPublicAccessService interface in your constructor:

public class MyClass
{

    private IPublicAccessService _publicAccessService;

	public MyClass(IPublicAccessService publicAccessService)
	{
		_publicAccessService = publicAccessService;
	}

}

Static accessor

If neither a Services property or Dependency Injection is available, you can also reference the static Current class directly:

IPublicAccessService publicAccessService = Umbraco.Core.Composing.Current.Services.PublicAccessService;
