MACRO seems to be the current means to expose these.

  https://orgmode.org/manual/Macro-Replacement.html

 | Org comes with following pre-defined macros:
 |
 |  ‘{{{keyword(NAME)}}}’
 | ‘{{{title}}}’
 | ‘{{{author}}}’
 | ‘{{{email}}}’

So you can use use, e.g. {{{author}}} in various places to get at data
from the header:

 | Org recognizes macro references in following Org markup areas:
 | paragraphs, headlines, verse blocks, tables cells and lists.
 | Org also recognizes macro references in keywords, such as
 | ‘CAPTION’, ‘TITLE’, ‘AUTHOR’, ‘DATE’, and for some back-end
 | specific export options.
