    Programmatically updated a field in the backoffice

    Hi,

    I am capturing the save event using private void ContentService_Saving(IContentService sender, SaveEventArgs

    Now, using e.SavedEntities, I can then update a given field in the page being saved, using its alias, as shown below. But how do you update other pages, not just the one being saved at that time?

    Thanks a lot!

        private void ContentService_Saving(IContentService sender, SaveEventArgs<IContent> e)
    {

    foreach(var item in e.SavedEntities) { item.Properties["fieldName"].Value = "test 2"; }

    You can fetch them with IContentService.GetByIds().
    For instance

    var otherId = Convert.ToInt32(item.Properties["relatedThing"].Value);
var otherItem = sender.GetByIds(otherId);
otherItem.Properties["someField"].Value = "Some value for the other thing";
sender.Save(otherItem, raiseEvents:false); // false to avoid recursive Saving event
