Hi I have a controller/class where a method in this class is being called to get a page programmatically. As an example, in Umbraco 13 I have 2 pages. When I'm on page 2, I'm calling this method to get some details from page 1. I can get it by IContent (GetById) or some documents suggest using IPublishedContent. Which is the correct way to get this type of record? Thanks

You should only use

IPublishedContent

unless you need data straight from the database and understand the performance hit this causes. https://dev.to/mattbrailsford/converting-icontent-to-ipublishedcontent-in-umbraco-v8-3m7i#:~:text=The%20main%20difference%20with%20these,accessible%20and%20strongly%20typed%20manor.

It was that link that led me to asking this question 😀 If using IPublishedContent then I don't see a method to get page by guid?

Yes, you can always get it by Guid for

IPublishedContent

. Show some code where you're stuck and we'll have a look.

I think I've worked it out. I added UmbracoHelper in my constructor and did: Var con = umbracHelper.Content(myGuid); This seems to have worked, is this the correct way to retrieve the page contents?

that looks about right yeah, as long as it gives you an

PublishedContent

! one tip, if you already have a content item, then

content.Key

will give you the

Guid

of that item. I don't know if that's the case for you but it might be useful.
