Search for pages

Hi. I've created an import routine, and this routine creates pages. These are only saved, and not published. In the routine, I need to check if the page already exists in EPiServer. If so, I need to refresh data or maybe not import the page at all. I've tried searching with both GetChildren and FindPagesWithCriteria, but they both give me the problems. When searhing with GetChildren, custom properties on pages that are not published, is null. When searching with FindPagesWithCriteria, unpublished pages are not even returned. I've requested this earlier as a feature (propertycriteria for returning pages on a given status...). What (if possible) is the best way for searching and looking up unpublished pages? Thanks, Frank :)

Hi frank! This is surely too late with an answer, but maybe others have the same problem. Try to call FindPagesWithCriteria with AccessControlList.NoAccess, e.g.:


FindPagesWithCriteria(Global.EPConfig.StartPage, pcCollection, AccessControlList.NoAccess)

Thanks. I ended up finding the the pages with


PageDataCollection oPages = 
        Global.EPDataFactory.FindPagesWithCriteria(
           parent, coll, EPiServer.Security.AccessControlList.NoAccess);

And then, afterwords I need to loop through all pages in the collection with this, to be able to retrieve data in the custom properties:


PageReference correctRef = new PageReference(page.PageLink.ID, true);
PageData reloadedPage = 
      Global.EPDataFactory.GetPage(
         correctRef, EPiServer.Security.AccessControlList.NoAccess);

if(reloadedPage != null)
           SaveProductToArray(reloadedPage);
