    Set Master Template on a new template created through API

    When creating a template using the API (new Template(path, name, alias) how do I set the Master Template so that it appears in the right place in the Umbraco back office? The content of the template sets the Layout property:

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
@{
    Layout = "MasterView.cshtml";
}

    but this doesn't get carried over to the "Master Template" property and I don't know how to set that in code?

    A workaround is to use the old umbraco.cms.businesslogic.template namespace (yuck)

    var oldTemplate = Template.GetTemplate(myTemplate.Id);
oldTemplate.MasterTemplate = masterTemplate.Id;
oldTemplate.Save();
