# Method name:

data.items.get(dataCollectionId: string, itemId: string, options: WixDataReadWithProjectionOptions)

# Method Link:

https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/business-solutions/data/items/get.md

# Method Description:

Retrieves an item from a collection.

The `get()` method returns a Promise that resolves to the item with ID
`itemId` from the specified collection, or `null` if the `itemId` is not
found. The Promise is rejected if the current user does not have read
permissions for the collection.

If the specified collection contains reference fields, the ID of the
referenced item is returned. To return the values of the referenced items
use `query()` and `include()`.

If the `get()` method is passed the ID of [a hidden item](https://support.wix.com/en/article/cms-controlling-live-site-item-visibility-from-your-collection), it returns null.

Calling the `get()` method triggers the [`beforeGet()`](https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/api-reference/wix-data/hooks/before-get.md) and [`afterGet()`](https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/api-reference/wix-data/hooks/after-get.md) hooks if they have been defined.

> **Notes:**
> - When using the `query()` or `get()` methods or another data retrieval method immediately following a change to your database collection, the data retrieved may not contain your most recent changes. Learn more about [Wix Data and eventual consistency](https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/backend-modules/data/eventual-consistency.md). To solve this, you can use the `setTimeout()` method to delay retrieving data following any changes to your database collection.
> - To speed up data retrieval, the results of certain data queries are cached. Learn more about [caching data query results](https://dev.wix.com/docs/develop-websites/articles/databases/wix-data/data-api/about-caching-data-query-results.md).
> - An `itemId` is required to retrieve an item even from a [single-item collection](https://support.wix.com/en/article/cms-adding-and-setting-up-a-single-item-collection).
