Automapper: Checking for null in MapFrom

Question

Using version 4.

How do I check for null when doing a map? I tried the .Value, but that's not there on a Null:

        Mapper.CreateMap<Agenda, AgendaViewModel>()
            .ForMember(x => x.DateApproved, 
               y => y.MapFrom(s =>  DateTime.SpecifyKind(s.DateApproved.Value, DateTimeKind.Utc)));

Answer 1

Alternatively, you can just check the HasValue property prior to mapping:

Mapper.CreateMap<Agenda, AgendaViewModel>()
     .ForMember(x => x.DateApproved,
                y => y.MapFrom(s => s.DateApproved.HasValue ?
                                    DateTime.SpecifyKind(s.DateApproved.Value, DateTimeKind.Utc) :
                                    DateTime.UtcNow));
