Finding Pages By Additional Urls with Fluent API

HI,
I'm running into an issue where I cannot add an additional URL for a page because that additional url already exists on another page. 

I'm looking to find this other page programmatically. 

I am developing for Sitefinity 5+ and want to use the Fluent API

I have tried modifying the code on the Developer Documentation without success ( www.sitefinity.com/.../querying-pages ) 

I was hoping to use something like this: 

01.string urlName = "~/productsandservices";
02. 
03.        PageData pageData = null;
04. 
05.        var count = 0;
06.        App.WorkWith().Pages().Where(pN => pN.Urls.Contains(urlName)).Count(out count);
07. 
08.        if (count != 0)
09.        
10.            pageData = App.WorkWith().Pages().Where(pN => pN.Urls.Contains(urlName)).Get().First().Page;
11.            Response.Write(pageData.Title.ToString());
12.        
13.        else
14.        
15.            Response.Write( "\"" + urlName + "\"" + " Not Found");
16.        

However, that introduces a type error, where pN.Urls.Contains(...) expects a PageUrlData item. I attempted to rectify this by defining my own PageUrlData item and assigning the 'Url' property to 'urlName' like so:

01.string urlName = "~/productsandservices";
02. 
03.PageData pageData = null;
04. 
05.PageUrlData pageUrlData = new PageUrlData();
06.pageUrlData.Url = urlName;
07. 
08.var count = 0;
09.App.WorkWith().Pages().Where(pN => pN.Urls.Contains(pageUrlData)).Count(out count);
10. 
11.if (count != 0)
12.
13.    pageData = App.WorkWith().Pages().Where(pN => pN.UrlName == urlName).Get().First().Page;
14.    Response.Write(pageData.Title.ToString());
15.
16.else
17.
18.    Response.Write( "\"" + urlName + "\"" + " Not Found");
19.

However, this code always returns a count of 0. So, I must be doing something wrong. 

I think my problems in my custom definition of pageUrlData; however, I do not know how to fix it. 

Can anyone point out what I'm missing, and how to go about correcting it?

Thank you

Guess not.

Hi,

Would it be possible to try the following approach with the native API:

var addUrl = new PageUrlData();
           addUrl.Url = "~/productsandservices";
            
           PageManager pageManager = PageManager.GetManager();
           var pages = pageManager.GetPageNodes();
           foreach (var page in pages)
           
               var urls = page.Urls;
               foreach (var url in urls)
               
                   var present = url.Url == "~/productsandservices";
