# Method name: isReferenced(collectionId: string, propertyName: string, referringItem: any, referencedItem: any, options: WixDataOptions)

# Method package: wixData

# Method menu location: wixData --> isReferenced

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

# Method Description:

Checks if a reference to the referenced item exists in the specified
  property of the referring item.

The `isReferenced()` function returns a Promise that resolves to `true` if
 the referring item contains a reference to the referenced item in the
 specified property. The Promise is rejected if the current
 user does not have read permissions for the collection.

 Calling the `isReferenced()` function does not trigger any hooks.

>**Note:** The `isReferenced()` function is not supported for Single Item Collections.



# Method Code Examples:

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

## Get referenced items

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

// ...

wixData.isReferenced("movies", "actors", "00001", "12345")
  .then((result) => {
    let isReferenced = result;  // true
  })
  .catch((err) => {
    let errorMsg = err;
  });

```
