Getting the service

Services property

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

INotificationService notificationService = Services.NotificationService;

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 INotificationService interface in your constructor:

public class MyClass
{

    private INotificationService _notificationService;

	public MyClass(INotificationService notificationService)
	{
		_notificationService = notificationService;
	}

}

Static accessor

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

INotificationService notificationService = Umbraco.Core.Composing.Current.Services.NotificationService;
