Hi @mrmachi ,

if you are creating any component with multifield (composite = true) It would be easier to create either a Sling Model or Java / Javascript Use API class to get the list and then use it in the HTL file.

But, if you want to access them through HTL you can refer this article where it will differentiate the usage of multifield using sling models/ only through pure HTL.
