    Get the available values of a specific data type in a controller?

    Using Umbraco And Getting Started
    Umbraco 9

    I'm trying to get the values of a checkboxlist but I can't seem to figure it out.

    I can get the actual property type from my document type like so

      var productionPage = _contentTypeService.Get(ProductionPage.ModelTypeAlias);
  var propertyType = productionPage.PropertyTypes.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Alias == "ageGroups");

    But after that I can't find any way to actually see what options the checkboxlist has? How can i achieve this?

    Try something like

    dataTypeService.GetPreValuesCollectionByDataTypeId(propertyType.DataTypeDefinitionId)

    I did end up doing something similar to this, but I'll mark this as the solution as it's the correct method to use
