GetCropUrl from Umbraco API

Hello,

I have a websevice using Umbraco's Web API to lazy load some child nodes content.

I'm struggling to figure out how to get the CropUrl from the JSON that is saved for the property.

This is my code.

var news = help.TypedContent(newsParent).Children().Where("Visible").Select(obj => new NewsItem()
        {
            Name = obj.Name,
            Id = obj.Id,
            PostTitle = obj.GetPropertyValue<string>("postTitle"),
            PostHeroImage = obj.GetCropUrl("postHeroTitle", "Square"),
            URL = obj.Url,
            CreateDate = obj.CreateDate,
            ParentName = obj.Parent.Name

        });

The crop's property alias is postHeroTitle.

Any ideas?

I've solved my problem.

Using the standard obj.GetCropUrl("propertyAlias" , "cropAlias") worked. Updated code below.

var news = help.TypedContent(newsParent).Children().Where("Visible").Select(obj => new NewsItem()
        {
            Name = obj.Name,
            Id = obj.Id,
            PostTitle = obj.GetPropertyValue<string>("postTitle"),
            PostHeroImage = obj.GetCropUrl("postHeroImage", "16:9"),
            URL = obj.Url,
            CreateDate = obj.CreateDate,
            ParentName = obj.Parent.Name
        });
