In Umbraco 7 I used the following code to generate code programmatically from C# (controller)
using ContentService.CreateContent And following is the code for the same
int parentID = 1100;
var request = ContentService.CreateContent("New Node Name", parentID, ContactUsForm.ModelTypeAlias);
request.SetValue(ContactRequestItem.GetModelPropertyType(C => C.FirstName).PropertyTypeAlias, FormModel.FirstName);
ContentService.PublishWithStatus(request);
Now in Umbraco 8
it is asking for
Udi ParentId
getting error "Can not convert 'int' to 'Umbraco.Core.Uid' ".
Have searched a lot, but can't find anything for Umbraco 8.
So now the question is How we can create a node from a controller in Umbraco 8?
The solution is as suggested on the following the link
public IContentService _contentService { get; set; }
public TestController(IContentService contentService)
{
_contentService = contentService;
}
public override ActionResult Index(ContentModel model)
{
var parentId = new Guid("3cce2545-e3ac-44ec-bf55-a52cc5965db3");
var request = _contentService.Create("test", parentId, ContentPage.ModelTypeAlias);
_contentService.SaveAndPublish(request);
return View();
}
