Body: <p>I'm trying to create an Export that indicates which phone number (out of Main, Home, Work, Billing, Alternative, etc) is being used for the Primary phone number. Is there a specific field I can include which states which phone number the Primary is using? There's a field called &quot;Phone Type&quot; but that just indicates whether the phone is a landline or mobile number.</p>

  I'm trying to create an Export that indicates which phone number (out of Main, Home, Work, Billing, Alternative, etc) is being used for the Primary phone number. Is there a specific field I can include which states which phone number the Primary is using? There's a field called "Phone Type" but that just indicates whether the phone is a landline or mobile number.

  You should be able to export that information using the field `Location type` but there seems to be a bug/limitation on the UI. You can indeed find this field for address but not for phone.
  
  As an alternative, you could use Search Kit to get the data you want. You can get a couple of interesting link to get you started on SearchKit here : <https://civicrm.org/blog/wmortada/searchkit-new-way-get-data-out-civicrm>
  
  When you get there, here is a small example with the field you want :
  
  [![SearchKit with Phone Location Type](https://i.sstatic.net/qnqd1.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/qnqd1.png)
  
  After saving the Search, you can use View Results and Download as spreadsheet :
