Hi I’m using beforeCreate lifecycle and i need to find a value of a Single Collection from another “Normal Collection”.

I don’t understand and I don’t find how to call this type of collection for obtain a field.

I try this:

const vi = await strapi.api.settings.services.settings.find();
vi.initial_value

const vi = await strapi.api.settings.services.settings.find(‘initial_value’);

const vi = await await strapi.api.settings.services.settings.initial_value;

Without any success.

Someone can explain me how to optain this value

Thanks.
