How to Export a Partly Loaded Reference Field to Excel
If you want to export Down/Up (Incoming/Outgoing) references of the items, see How to export all (Down-Up-In-Out) references of the items to Excel
The attached Excel example template solves a problem that the reference-fields of the export items might not be fully loaded during export, so some of their properties might be missing.
This example shows the reference field that is in the versions/ Releases field. The template uses a manager call to fully load the versions and prints out its properties.
This template will always load the HEAD revision, even when the reference field points to an earlier version:
This second template does the same but retains the correct version of the reference field. For example, if the releases field points to an old version of a release, then this version will be loaded correctly:
