    Get Content by alias

    Using Umbraco 7
    Umbraco 7

    I need a way to get content not by id but by alias?

    In UmbracoApiController I have a method for this: GetNodeByAlias(alias);

    How can this be accomplished from the Umbraco context?

    Hi Dennis,

    You could use an XPath expression with the UmbracoHelper:

    UmbracoHelper umbracoHelper = new UmbracoHelper(UmbracoContext.Current);

    If there are multiple content nodes with the given alias:

    IEnumerable<IPublishedContent> content = umbracoHelper.TypedContentAtXPath("//" + alias);

    Or if you are expecting a single result you can use:

    IPublishedContent content = umbracoHelper.TypedContentSingleAtXPath("//" + alias);

    HTH, Hendy
