    I am trying to programmatically set unpublish date in Umbraco 8, but i can't seem to figure out how..

    Hi Jepser,

    think you have to set a content schedule

    item.ContentSchedule.Add(new ContentSchedule("*", DateTime.Now.AddDays(1), ContentScheduleAction.Expire))

    the tricky bit is the culture, for which I think "*" would mean all languages (it does in other places in the code base).

    you might also need to clear it to ensure you not adding extras. 

    item.ContentSchedule.Clear(ContentScheduleAction.Expire);

    Thank you Kevin, it worked ! :D

    This is my final code:

    var contentService = Services.ContentService;
var node = contentService.GetById(item.Id);
var contentsched = new ContentSchedule("*", DateTime.Now.AddDays(3), ContentScheduleAction.Expire);     
node.ContentSchedule.Clear(ContentScheduleAction.Expire);
node.ContentSchedule.Add(contentsched);
contentService.SaveAndPublish(node);

    Tnx for great solution. I had to modify it a bit to work on multiple language site:

    var csd = new ContentScheduleCollection();
foreach (var c in node.CultureInfos)
{
    csd.Add(new ContentSchedule(c.Culture, maxDate.AddDays(1), ContentScheduleAction.Expire));
}
node.ContentSchedule = csd;

    For some reason, the "*" didn't work
