# Check if entity is saved

> Check whether an entity is saved in any of the user's collections

## Overview

`useIsEntitySaved` provides a function to check whether a specific entity is saved in any collection owned by the current user. The function returns the full result — including the list of collections the entity is saved in — leaving state management to the caller.

<Note>Requires an authenticated user. Throws if called without a logged-in user, an entity ID, or a project ID.</Note>

## Usage Example

```tsx theme={null}
import { useState } from "react";
import { useIsEntitySaved } from "@replyke/react-js";

function SaveStatus({ entityId }) {
  const { checkIfEntityIsSaved } = useIsEntitySaved();
  const [savedStatus, setSavedStatus] = useState(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    checkIfEntityIsSaved({ entityId }).then(setSavedStatus);
  }, [entityId]);

  if (savedStatus === null) return <p>Checking...</p>;
  return <p>{savedStatus.saved ? "Saved" : "Not saved"}</p>;
}
```

## Returns

<ResponseField name="checkIfEntityIsSaved" type="({ entityId }: { entityId: string }) => Promise<{ saved: boolean; collections: Array<{ id: string; name: string }> }>">
  Calls the API to determine whether the entity is saved in any of the user's collections. Returns the full result including the list of collections the entity belongs to.
</ResponseField>

<Note>
  To also check membership in a specific collection, use `isEntitySaved` from `useCollections` — it accepts an optional `collectionId` and returns `inSpecificCollection` in addition to the full data.
