You can get Record type By following ways :-

Option 1 :- You can check by record 

Select id,Name,recordTypeid,recordType.Name from Account limit 5;

Option 2 :- By Describe call 

Schema.DescribeSObjectResult R = Account.SObjectType.getDescribe();
List<Schema.RecordTypeInfo> RT = R.getRecordTypeInfos();
..............................

private String getRecordTypeSelectedId(String recordTypeName){
    String rtId;
    List<RecordType> rtList = New List<RecordType>([Select ID, Name From RecordType Where sObjectType = 'Work_Order__c']);
    for(RecordType rt : rtList) {
        if(rt.Name == recordTypeName) {
             rtId = rt.Id;
        }
    }
    return rtId;        
}

.........................

Option 3 :- Direct query record by SOQL

select id,name from recordType where SobjectType ='account';

Hi Simrin,

There is no need to query. you can get the record type id using schema.

YOUR_OBJECT_API_NAME.sObjectType.getDescribe().getRecordTypeInfosByName().get('YOUR_RECORD_TYPE_NAME').getRecordTypeId()
