    Checkboxlist add prevalue from code

    Using Umbraco And Getting Started
    Umbraco 9

    Hi,

    I have document type that uses a checkbox list with some predefined values.

    We use an importer to import data into these documenttypes and map to the predefined values.

    If a predefined value does not exest I want to add it before we map it.

    How can I get all the options/prevalues for the checkboxlist? and how can we add a new option/prevalue to the list?

    Hope somebody can point me in the right direction.

    I figured it out. This seems to do the job

     private IDataTypeService _dataTypeService;

    public fieldProviderDropdown(IDataTypeService dataTypeService)
    {
        _dataTypeService = dataTypeService;
    }

    inside the function:

      var dataType = _dataTypeService.GetDataType("Regios List");                

                ValueListConfiguration prevalues = (ValueListConfiguration)dataType.Configuration;

                ValueListConfiguration.ValueListItem itemtest = new ValueListConfiguration.ValueListItem();

                  itemtest.Value = value.ToString();
                  itemtest.Id = prevalues.Items.Count+1;
                  prevalues.Items.Add(itemtest);
                  _dataTypeService.Save(dataType);
