Hello, thanks for posting! Do you mind elaborating on what you’re looking to do? Maybe a code example?

Sure.
First of all this is a use case with page generation using Gatsby. :slight_smile:
I have a Page (let’s call it ParentPage) with a custom field of type List; this list contains References to some entries of any type (eg Page or some Data type). Then I have my imported React component which I’m adding to ParentPage; that component has builderState prop available; in this prop I have some ParentPage data; among others there are my defined custom fields, especially my list of References. BUT not deeply resolved. I have only reference Id, type and so. (when calling API i have an option includeRefs which gives all data, even what’s inside References, so eg blogPost title etc.)

I did a workaround, dynamically fetching references by given Id :slight_smile: :man_shrugging:

article(query:
{
id: “{’$in’: [list of ids]}”
}
)
