SettingsKeyInfoProvider GetValueFromDB

I was wondering what is the difference between SettingsKeyInfoProvider.GetValue(SettingsKeyName) and .GetValueFromDB(SettingsKeyName)?

Thanks David

Hi David,

These are documented pretty well https://devnet.kentico.com/docs/10_0/api/html/Methods_T_CMS_DataEngine_SettingsKeyInfoProvider.htm

SettingsKeyInfoProvider.GetValue Method (SettingsKeyName)

Return Value Type: String Returns "" if the key does not exist

SettingsKeyInfoProvider.GetValueFromDB Method (SettingsKeyName)

Return Value Type: String

You will have to take care the validation part for the second one.

Thanks Rui, Main difference is GetValue will return not found. Both get the value from the same source...
