Hi,
how are you doing ?
I ran into an issue trying to read the "url" field value of a content we use as page content.
The value for the field "url"is set in the dotCMS admin for all pages.
In the content type screen the field properties have been set to :
-Name: Url
- Variable:url
- Required
- User Searchable
- System Indexed
- Show in List
When using the ContentletAPI.find all fields are filled in the response Contentlet, however the "url" field is always "null".
Contentlet pageContent = APILocator.getContentletAPI().find(pageId, APILocator.getUserAPI().getSystemUser(), false);
Does anyone know if we do something wrong?
We found an ugly workaround using the dotCMS viewtool "com.dotcms.rendering.velocity.viewtools.content.ContentTool.find()" method.
This returns only the contentmap for a Contentlet, and there the field "Url" is filled:
ContentMap pageContentMap = contentTool.find(page.getInode());
Can anyone assist in why the "Url" field is not filled?
Thank you!

Bart:
You need to use the HTMLPageAssetAPI and do something like
HTMLPageAsset asset = APILocator.getHTMLPageAssetAPI().findPage(pageId, APILocator.systemUser(), false);
Or if you have the contentlet:
HTMLPageAsset asset = APILocator.getHTMLPageAssetAPI().fromContentlet(contentlet);
