NOTE: For demonstration purposes, this example uses only one field for every content type, but there is no limitation to how many fields a content type can have. For more details about using your content type with more fields, use the Code reference link on the module page.

After you create the Music Collection module with the Module Builder, you can create some artists, albums, and songs, using the following code snippet:

The code above executes the Code reference examples to create a singer, albums, and songs, to sets their relationships, and to publish them through Sitefinity CMS workflow.
