    Get Url with UmbracoHelper

    Hi,

    I'm trying to get the url of an IPublishedContent with the UmbracoHelper inside an UmbracoApiController.

    the query:

    UmbracoHelper uh = new UmbracoHelper(base.UmbracoContext);
var foundOffices = uh.TypedContentAtXPath("//Office[zip= '" + cityZip + "']");

    I get results for foundOffices but when I try to say

    foreach(var item in foundOffices)
{
    Log(item.Url);
}

    It says:

    Cannot resolve a Url for a content item with a null UmbracoContext.Current reference

    Any suggestions?

    Maybe try this to create the UmbracoHelper:

    var uh = new UmbracoHelper(Umbraco.Web.UmbracoContext.Current);

    Still getting the error but not always.

    Could this be an internal cache error?

    I want to get the url of a document where the zip property is whatever is in cityZip.

    Ok, the answer to the problem is calling the 

    Umbraco.Web.UmbracoContext.EnsureContext()

    Method before trying to get the url.
