Sitecore 10.1 released a few weeks ago and one of the new features is the Publishing Web Hook. The main reason why this is introduced is to able to easily update JAMstack apps on publish. Official step-by-step guide for Vercel deployment can be found on the official Sitecore JSS documentation site, here.

Discovering Sitecore ASP .NET Core SDK – Datasource Item Children Resolver
TL;DR

| { | |
| public class ChildrenBlockModel | |
| { | |
| [SitecoreComponentField(Name = "items")] | |
| public IEnumerable<ItemLinkField<ContentBlockModel>> Children { get; set; } | |

Longer interpretation
I wanted to play around a bit with different Contents Resolvers. The default resolvers are the following under the /sitecore/system/Modules/Layout Service/Rendering Contents Resolvers item:
- Context Item Children Resolver
- Context Item Resolver
- Datasource Item Children Resolver
- Datasource Resolver
- Folder Filter Resolver
- Sitecore Forms Resolver
Sitecore ASP .NET Core SDK output caching PoC
One of my first question about Sitecore ASP .NET Core SDK was that, is there any built in rendering side caching mechanism implemented already?
This is in consideration in the roadmap, we are looking at ways to expose publishing events to the rendering host to enable this.
Nick Wesselman
Meanwhile, I thought I implement something simple to achieve this. The basic idea is to open and endpoint in the ASP .NET Core rendering host which will “clear” the cache. This endpoint can be called by the Sitecore CM while publishing. This is not a production ready implementation but could be a good starting point for you. So let’s start with it!

I published my last post a long time ago, but I faced new challenges while upgrading a Sitecore infrastructure from 9.0.1 to 9.3. As you all probably know, Identity Server is used as primary authenticator for CM environments by default.

I got a feature request that I should store something on session start. In the old ASP.NET Framework world it was easy because we had Globbal.asax.cs and its Session_Start event. The original answer to this question is here. But, as I prefer overengineering modular architecture and Sitecore Helix principles I wanted to make it extensible without touching this Foundation piece of code. As you probably know we have Startup.cs instead of Global.asax.cs and DistributedSessionStore. To extend the Create method of the DistributedSessionStore you can just simply inherit from its interface ISessionStore.
Find and replace external URL references with internal link
The requirements are the following:
- We have thousand of rich text components which has URL references to external pages
- These references needs to be replaced by an internal Sitecore item reference based on a field of the pages

Switching from TDS to Unicorn – some useful verifying SQL scripts
On of my project we switched from TDS to Unicorn. After we configured Unicorn and set up dependencies between configurations I wanted to verify that every item was migrated from TDS (*.item) to Unicorn (*.yml) in the database successfully.
