QuickAdd API getFieldValues() only works with properties and not DataView fields

[stecydube]

I tried this code in a dataviewjs block:

const quickAddApi = this.app.plugins.plugins.quickadd.api;
const values = await quickAddApi.fieldSuggestions.getFieldValues("Id");
console.log(values);

where I have Id:: 1000 in a note, I get an empty array in the console log.

I then tried with having the Id as a note property

---
Id: 1000
---

and now this time I get an array with the value 1000.

Is that the intended behavior, only using properties and not fields?

Damn, I forgot to add the options. Still, getting an empty array.

const quickAddApi = this.app.plugins.plugins.quickadd.api;
const values = await quickAddApi.fieldSuggestions.getFieldValues("Id",
    { 
        includeInline: true 
    });
console.log(values);

I think I may have found why I don't get results.
QuickAdd does not look into codeblocks:

My field is in a code block:

```ad-note
title: Meta data
collapse: closed

Id:: 121212
```

I wish there was a way to specify that ad-note blocks (or any other configurable type) be excluded from the search.

@chhoumann Should I convert this to an issue?

[chhoumann]

Please do! That would be helpful. Thanks for asking.

Following up here since this thread never got its ending: the option you wished for shipped via your issue #998 (QuickAdd 2.12.0). Code blocks are still excluded by default - that stays as a safety default - but you can now opt specific fence types in by name:

const values = await quickAddApi.fieldSuggestions.getFieldValues("Id", {
    includeInline: true,
    includeInlineCodeBlocks: ["ad-note"],
});

That picks up your Id:: field inside the ad-note admonition. Docs (your exact case is the example there): https://quickadd.obsidian.guide/docs/QuickAddAPI#field-suggestions-module

Thanks for filing the issue - closing this as resolved.
