08/02/2023, 3:55 PMI've created some new pages and deleted some of the current pages on my local copy of the website and then deployed the changes via Git and then queued the content for transfer, this is the content tree node structure on my local copy https://prnt.sc/t45EzVrpnrqV and this is the LIVE content tree node: https://prnt.sc/S5lECRKu0Eys
This means that the node IDs are going to be different now - I want to keep them in sync - is that even possible? How do I go about sorting this problem out?

08/02/2023, 5:07 PMNot 100% sure. I just right-click on the content node and queue the content for transfer.
I'll have to check tomorrow whether it's using Usync.

08/02/2023, 5:13 PMAh your right, queue for transfer
Ambert
08/02/2023, 5:14 PMNo thats Umbraco Deploy then, you're hosted on Umbraco Cloud 🙂
Ambert
08/02/2023, 5:14 PMDon't think the id's can remain the same
Ambert
08/02/2023, 5:15 PMhowever, I do believe the guids are the same, but i'm not 100% sure

08/02/2023, 5:15 PMCorrect, I have cloned the repo and am working locally. Then pushing my code back to the cloud and queuing the content for transfer.

08/03/2023, 7:58 AMNot possible, you need to change whatever you need the ids for to use the keys (guids) instead as they will stay the same

08/03/2023, 8:01 AMAh right, that'll work for me, how would I grab the GUID?
For the node ID I previously did;
Copy code
var caseStudiesNode = Umbraco.Content(1149);
var caseStudiesNodeUrl = caseStudiesNode?.Url();j

08/03/2023, 8:09 AMWould depend on where you got 1149 from. If you went in the backoffice and looked at a node and copied its id and used in your code, then you can do the same but instead copy its guid

08/03/2023, 8:10 AMIf you got it from an IPublishedContent model by calling model.Id then you can just call model.Key instead
