# Method name: get(collectionId: string, itemId: string, options: WixDataOptions)

# Method package: wixData

# Method menu location: wixData --> get

# Method Link: https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/apis/wix-data/get.md

# Method Description:

Retrieves an item from a collection.

The `get()` function 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()`](https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/api-reference/wix-data/query.md) and [`include()`](https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/api-reference/wix-data/wix-data-query/include.md).

 If the `get()` function is passed the ID of a hidden item, it returns `null`.

 Calling the `get()` function 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.

 Use the `options` parameter to run `get()` from backend code without
 checking for permissions or without its registered hooks.

 > **Notes:**
 > - When using the `query()` or `get()` functions or another data retrieval method following a change to your database collection, the data retrieved may not contain your most recent changes. See [Wix Data and Eventual Consistency](https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/api-reference/wix-data/introduction.md#api-reference_wix-data_wix-data-and-eventual-consistency) for more information. To solve this problem, you can use the [`setTimeout()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/JavaScript/Asynchronous/Timeouts_and_intervals#setTimeout) function 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).

# Method Code Examples:

*** Note: do not assume any prop names or enum values other than the ones in the example.

## Get an item from a collection

```javascript
import wixData from 'wix-data';

// ...

wixData.get("myCollection", "00001")
  .then((item) => {
    console.log(item); //see item below
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    console.log(err);
  });

/*  item is:
 *
 *  {
 *    "_id":          "00001",
 *    "_owner":       "ffdkj9c2-df8g-f9ke-lk98-4kjhfr89keedb",
 *    "_createdDate": "2017-05-24T12:33:18.938Z",
 *    "_updatedDate": "2017-05-24T12:33:18.938Z",
 *    "title":        "Mr.",
 *    "first_name":   "John",
 *    "last_name":    "Doe"
 *  }
 */
```

## Get an item from a collection using data options

```javascript
import wixData from 'wix-data';

// ...

let options = {
  "suppressAuth": true,
  "suppressHooks": true
};

wixData.get("myCollection", "00001", options)
  .then((item) => {
    console.log(item); //see item below
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    console.log(err);
  });

/*  item is:
 *
 *  {
 *    "_id":          "00001",
 *    "_owner":       "ffdkj9c2-df8g-f9ke-lk98-4kjhfr89keedb",
 *    "_createdDate": "2017-05-24T12:33:18.938Z",
 *    "_updatedDate": "2017-05-24T12:33:18.938Z",
 *    "title":        "Mr.",
 *    "first_name":   "John",
 *    "last_name":    "Doe"
