Using an App.Query multiple times

The previous examples showed how to use an App.Query. Now we want to run the query twice, which requires a Reset().
Note that the parameter PortalId is preset to be [Portal:PortalId].



    @{
      // get the query and ask for the "Default" results as a dynamic List
      var query = App.Query["DnnFilesFromSql"];
      var currentFiles = AsList(query);
      query.Reset();
      query.Params("PortalId", "0");
      var rootFiles = AsList(query);
    }
