in my org-dp repo I have these two functions:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun org-dp-contents (&optional element interpret-p no-properties-p)
  "Get contents of element-at-point or ELEMENT.
If INTERPRET-P is non-nil, call `org-element-interpret-data' on
return value. Call `org-no-properties' on result if
NO-PROPERTIES-P is non-nil too."
  (let* ((elem (cond
		((and (not (booleanp element))
		      (symbolp element))
		 (eval element))
		((stringp element)
		 (let ((el (car (read-from-string element))))
		   (when (consp el) el)))
		((consp element) element)
		(t (org-element-at-point))))
	 (beg (org-element-property :begin elem))
	 (end (org-element-property :end elem))
	 (type (org-element-type elem)))
    (if (and beg end)
	(save-restriction
	  (narrow-to-region beg end)
	  (let ((cont (org-element-map
			  (org-element-parse-buffer 'object)
			  type 'org-element-contents nil t)))
	    (cond
	     ((and interpret-p no-properties-p)
	      (org-no-properties (org-element-interpret-data cont)))
	     (interpret-p
	      (org-element-interpret-data cont))
	     (t cont))))
      (org-element-contents elem))))


(defun org-dp-filter-node-props (filter &optional negate-p verbose-p)
  "Return filtered node-properties.
FILTER should be either a symbol from `org-dp-prop-classes', the
symbol `org' (matching the union of all `org-dp-prop-classes' and
customizable variable `org-dp-misc-props'), a list of keys as
strings, or a (single) regexp-string. If NEGATE-P is non-nil, the
properties not matched by the filter are returned. If VERBOSE-P
is non-nil, a message is printed if no property-drawer is found,
otherwise nil is returned."
  (let ((props (save-excursion
		 (and
		  (or (org-at-heading-p)
		      (outline-previous-heading))
		  (re-search-forward
		   org-property-drawer-re

		     (org-end-of-meta-data-and-drawers)
		     (point))
		   'NOERROR 1)
		  (progn
		    (goto-char (match-beginning 0))
		    (org-dp-contents)))))
	filtered-props)
    (if (not props)
	(when verbose-p
	  (message
	   "Could not find properties at point %d in buffer %s."
	   (point) (current-buffer)))
      (org-element-map props 'node-property
	(lambda (--prop)
	  (let* ((key (org-element-property :key --prop))
		 (val (org-element-property :value --prop))
		 (memberp (case filter
			    ((special custom default file global)
			     (member-ignore-case
			      key
			      (eval
			       (cdr-safe
				(assoc filter
				       org-dp-prop-classes)))))
			    (org (member-ignore-case
				  key (org-dp-org-props)))
			    (t (cond
				((stringp filter)
				 (string-match filter key))
				((consp filter)
				 (member-ignore-case key filter))
				(t (error "Not a valid filter: %s"
					  filter)))))))
	    (when (or (and negate-p (not memberp))
		      (and (not negate-p) memberp))
	      (setq filtered-props
		    (cons (cons key val) filtered-props))))))
      filtered-props)))

#+END_SRC

maybe thats somehow related...
