Get Page type from Node object

The page object has the NodeClassID column - this is the ID of the class from CMS_Class table - and in this particular case the class equals page type. Also, depending what API you are using, the page/node object should have the ClassName property which contains the page type code name directly.

Hi Jaraj,

Thanks for the advice. I can get the class name from the node. The problem is I have content type page type, so when a new page is created I must go and get the saved page data from the page type. To get to id I will need to use the document id, need to get foreign key and get the object for that id.

What would be the best way to a chief this?

What API are you using? E.g. you can use document query and use DocumentHelper.GetDocuments with .WithCoupledColumns() to get all the data. Just as it is shown in our API examples

Hi Ivan!

You can use either strong typed Page Type objects in this method or just a GetValue of TreeNode. For example:

public override IntegrationProcessResultEnum ProcessInternalTaskAsync(TreeNode node,
    TranslationHelper translations, TaskTypeEnum taskType, TaskDataTypeEnum dataType, string siteName,
    out string errorMessage)
{
    errorMessage = String.Empty;

    // cast to strong type
    var article = node as Article;

    // access the custom field
    var summary = article.ArticleSummary;

    // get without strong type
    var summary2 = node.GetValue("ArticleSummary");

    return IntegrationProcessResultEnum.OK;
}

Please note, that you need to have generated class for page type. In the example above you should have Article.generated.cs in your solution. And if it is MVC - you should have it in Admin Web Application as well! Hope it helps.
