# resolvedEntities()

Retrieves and returns the entity instances for each identifier in the collection.

```
func resolvedEntities() async throws -> [Entity]
```

## Return Value

An array of resolved entities.

## Discussion> Throws: An error if the entities cannot be resolved.

Use this method to retrieve the [`AppEntity`](/documentation/AppIntents/AppEntity) instances for each identifier in the collection.
You might use this method in your [`perform()`](/documentation/AppIntents/AppIntent/perform()) method when you need additional data
from each entity. If the collection already has a cached set of entity instances, the method
returns them. If there are no cached values, the method uses entity queries to request them
from your app.
