Hi Peter,

try injecting the IPublishedContentQuery like this

public class Example { private readonly IPublishedContentQuery _publishedContentQuery;

    public Example(IPublishedContentQuery publishedContentQuery)
    {
        _publishedContentQuery = publishedContentQuery;
    }

    public IPublishedContent GetContentExample(int nodeId)
    {
        var node = _publishedContentQuery.Content(nodeId)


        return node;
    }

}

This code should work, atleast it does here ;-)

It's basically the same as described here: https://our.umbraco.com/Documentation/Reference/Management/Services/ContentService/

Hi Ambert, thank you so much for your suggestion. I really appreciate it. I had already tried the method described in the link you have sent.

I also right now tried the exact thing as you have recommended ... I could not make it work following your example unfortunately, as it always returned "null" (see image)

But I found another method that works by calling Services.ContentService:

var test = Services.ContentService.GetById(pageId);
var pageType = test.ContentType.Alias;

/ Best regards Peter

Hmm thats odd, it says the publishedContentQuery itself is null.

Perhaps something went wrong with the dependencyInjection itself in the above code of your screenshot?

Yeah, it is strange Ambert.

It is definitely because I don't get the Injection right in the Class-file. I just don't know what I am doing wrong.

It worked on my Controller where I initiate the controller like this:

public ContentSurfaceController(
            IUmbracoContextAccessor umbracoContextAccessor,
            IUmbracoDatabaseFactory databaseFactory,
            ServiceContext services,
            AppCaches appCaches,
            IProfilingLogger profilingLogger,
            IPublishedUrlProvider publishedUrlProvider)
            : base(umbracoContextAccessor, databaseFactory, services, appCaches, profilingLogger, publishedUrlProvider)
        {
        }

then I got the content like this, easy peasy: var test = Services.ContentService.GetById(pageId); var pageType = test.ContentType.Alias;

But if I make a class-file (CommentsDataModel.cs) and try the same method then services are null (just like publishedContentQuery )

I tried to do like this in my class-file:

public readonly ServiceContext services;
    public IContent GetContentExample(int nodeId)
    {
        var node = services.ContentService.GetById(nodeId);
        return node;
    }

But services are null here... Don't know why. Maybe I have to send "services" as a parameter when I call the class from my Controller to avoid services to be null?

Thanks Ambert for your help so far / Best regards Peter

Hmm I'm not 100% sure if I follow you, and if you tried it exactly Like I did:

public class Example { 
    private readonly IPublishedContentQuery _publishedContentQuery;

    public Example(IPublishedContentQuery publishedContentQuery)
    {
        _publishedContentQuery = publishedContentQuery;
    }

   public IPublishedContent GetContentExample(int nodeId)
   {
      var node = _publishedContentQuery.Content(nodeId)


      return node;
}

}

does this work?

is working on a reply...
