What is the easiest way to expose an entity field to the frontend from an extension?

If you're using SC/A 2019.1 or newer, they are automatically exposed

How would you call it to the frontend? fields such as email and companyname

There is code in the core site code to fetch and save all custom fields. If you have SCA I can point you to the file that does it

Yes we have SCA. currently developing 2020.2

But I wrote about this process here: <https://developers.suitecommerce.com/expose-custom-field-data-to-the-frontend.html#custom-entity-fields>

OK, well in Profile/SuiteScript/Profile.Model.js there is a `getCustomFields()` call

You can see all the other fields that are automatically exposed

If you want to test it in your browser, you can use the following in your console: `SC.Application.getComponent('UserProfile').getUserProfile().then(function(profile){console.log(profile)})`

In your extension, you would use `container`  instead of `SC.Application`
