Find out which MediaData that is referenced from a page/block

There's this method in IContentRepository

_contentRepo.GetReferencesToContent(mediaData.ContentLink, false)

That will let me know if there's content (pages/blocks) that is using the MediaData in someway.

What about the other way around?

Is there a generic way of finding out which MediaData that is referenced by a specific page/block?

I found this.

Note that it is marked as "Unsupported INTERNAL API!"

var contentSoftLinkIndexer = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<ContentSoftLinkIndexer>();

var linkedContent = contentSoftLinkIndexer.GetLinks(content);

Hi Peter,

I'd suggest that, rather than use an internal API you could use IContentSoftLinkRepository. That has a "load" method which lets you retrieve a list of content linked from a given piece of content.
