Hello, I am developing a custom view for a component i am creating in Umbraco using BlockGrid BlockGrid provides me with mediaItemResolver, for example, in the AngularJS html, which works great. However i now need to get a content item by ID. Is this possible? How would i do it? I am trying to render the component in Umbraco for the content editor using BlockGrid. The component allows the content editor to select X number of items, hence by ID as i have the ID of the item selected in the AngularJS html

From within AngularJS you can inject the content resource to get content items by ID. Dependant on what you need from the content using the entityresource may perform better. https://apidocs.umbraco.com/v11/ui/#/api/umbraco.resources.contentResource

@Jemayn thanks 😄

@JigitalCharlie if you look at this example in the documentation: https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/fundamentals/backoffice/property-editors/built-in-umbraco-property-editors/block-editor/build-custom-view-for-blocks#adding-custom-implementation-to-your-view They register their own controller, inject the mediaResource in the function, use it to get an image by its udi, and then set its url to a variable they can call in the view. You'd need to do basically the same, but with the contentResource for content instead of the mediaResource for media 🙂

Ah ok, so just build my own custom view and inject, ok :D. Did not realise i could do that with BlockGrid 😄
