How to get data from linked INLINES.ENTRY_HYPERLINK

[rutgerbakker95]

Hi,

I'd link to add hyperlinks and links to entries in my rich-text field. Is there a way to receive data from the linked entry? Currently I'm only getting the sys.id of the linked entry...

Query:

query {
  pageHomepage(id: "7gBE67AMfi2O7fRM2D7xGL") {
    content {
      json
      links {
        entries {
          hyperlink {
            sys {
              id
            }
            contentfulMetadata {
              tags {
                id
                name
              }
            }
            __typename
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Output:

{
  "data": {
    "pageHomepage": {
      "content": {
        "json": {
          "nodeType": "document",
          "data": {},
          "content": [
            {
              "nodeType": "paragraph",
              "data": {},
              "content": [
                {

                  "marks": [],
                  "data": {}
                },
                {
                  "nodeType": "entry-hyperlink",
                  "data": {
                    "target": {

                        "linkType": "Entry"
                      }
                    }
                  },
                  "content": [
                    {
                      "nodeType": "text",
                      "value": "I'd like to get the slug of the linked entry",
                      "marks": [],
                      "data": {}  # need some data from linked entry
                    }
                  ]
                },
                {
                  "nodeType": "text",
                  "value": "",
                  "marks": [],
                  "data": {}
                }
              ]
            }
          ]
        },
        "links": {
          "entries": {
            "hyperlink": [
              {
                "sys": {
                  "id": "2K5KHMn7Gn0Vt13x11Es6n"
                },
                "contentfulMetadata": {
                  "tags": []
                },
                "__typename": "PageMethod"
              }
            ]
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

@rutgerbakker95 I just stumbled upon the same problem. Did you find any solution by now?

You probably need to pass the include parameter to your getEntries call.

https://www.contentful.com/developers/docs/references/content-delivery-api/#/reference/links/retrieval-of-linked-items

This is how we use it:

const index = await getEntries({ content_type: 'index', include: 10 });
