As part of implementing some custom approvals code, I want to intercept a content move and show the current location (parentId) and proposed destination location (?) when the BeforeMove event is fired. Is there any way I can capture the id of the destination chosen in the popup dialog so that I can pass it to my approvals code? This would be so that once the approval has been approved I can call the Move API and pass it the required id. I've googled around but the only examples I can find all use static hard-coded page ids.
Found the solution so posting here in case anyone else comes across this. Basically don't use the umbraco.cms.businesslogic.web.Document.BeforeMove event, use Umbraco.Core.Services.ContentService.Moving and Moved - these give you a lot more info in the Entity object and crucially the MoveEventArgs includes the ParentId for the desired destination.
