    Obtaining a product GUID

    Merchello
    Umbraco 7

    Hello,

    I'm currently working through the examples within the documentation. A section of code doesn't appear to be correct. That, or I've made a mistake else where.

    My 'list-products' page is throwing a guid related error, due to this line:

     var result = contentProduct.GetPropertyValue("merchelloproduct").ToString();

    This is obviously returning a string, but it's not returning a string containing a guid. It's returning:

    "{Merchello.Web.Models.ContentEditing.ProductDisplay}"

    As you'd expect, knock-off the 'ToString; and we get the {Merchello.Web.Models.ContentEditing.ProductDisplay} object.

    When debugging I can see that the object has a property (among others), called 'Key'. This is the Guid i'm trying to access..

    var theGuid = result.Key;

    The property isn't available to me it would seem.

    Any ideas?

    cheers

    I had run across this issue, and just figured it out myself.

    The page I am using is inheriting the UmbracoTemplatePage.

    MerchelloHelper Merchello = new MerchelloHelper();
Guid key = new Guid(CurrentPage.product.Key.ToString());
var product = Merchello.Query.Product.GetByKey(key);
