Create Member Groups & Properties Programatically in umbraco 8

Is it possible to create a member group and member group properties programmatically?

I have the need to create a specific Member Group programatically and then add specific properties to it, this is for a package I'm creating.

Hi Yuvraj

You can use the MemberGroupService to create a Member Group programmatically:

https://our.umbraco.com/Documentation/Reference/Management/Services/MemberGroupService/Index-v8

and the MemberService to Create Members:

https://our.umbraco.com/Documentation/Reference/Management/Services/MemberService/Index-v8

if that helps?

Marc

Hi Yuvraj

Yes, I think it's something like this:

            // get a reference to the MemberGroupService
            var memberGroupService = Services.MemberGroupService;
            // Create a new membergroup 'in code'
            IMemberGroup newMemberGroup = new MemberGroup() { Name = "LovelyPeople" };
            // use the MemberGroupServer to persist the new Member Group to Umbraco
            memberGroupService.Save(newMemberGroup);

            var memberService = Services.MemberService;
            // create member
            var newMember = memberService.CreateMember("JezzaB", "[email protected]", "Jeremy Bourbon", "Member");
            memberService.Save(newMember);
            memberService.AssignRole(newMember.Id, "LovelyPeople");
            // but also I think this works
            memberService.AssignRole(newMember.Id, "NotPreviouslyCreatedMemberGroupName");
            // eg if you are assigning a member to a new member group, I'm not sure you need to have created the member group programatically 'before', assigning to a 'new' member group, will trigger the creation of that group.
            // also be careful with case sensitivity, as unless it's been fixed recently lovelyPeople != LovelyPeople...

Hi Yuvraj

Sorry my misunderstanding!

You probably want the MemberTypeService: https://our.umbraco.com/Documentation/Reference/Management/Services/MemberTypeService/Index-v8

which allows you to programmatically create MemberType definitions.

Here is an example from my code:

                                // Creates user group
                            UserGroup userGroup = new UserGroup();
                            userGroup.Name = $"{config.SiteName} User Group";
                            userGroup.Alias = string.Concat("ug_", root.Id, "_", userGroup.Name.Replace(" ", ""));

                            userGroup.AddAllowedSection("content");
                            userGroup.AddAllowedSection("media");
                            userGroup.Permissions = new List<string> { "I", "P", "K", "F", "ï", "D", "C", "U", "A", "O", "S" };

                            userGroup.StartContentId = root.Id;
                            userGroup.StartMediaId = rootMedia.Id;

                            userGroup.Icon = "icon-location-near-me";

                            Services.UserService.Save(userGroup);
