I want to export an org mode document so that sections or subsections with TODO keywords do not appear in the exported output. How can this be achieved?

The export-settings documentation does not explicitly mention anything related to this.

There is an export option to control exporting of TODO items:

tasks: Toggle inclusion of tasks (TODO items), can be nil to remove all tasks, todo to remove DONE tasks, or a list of keywords to keep (org-export-with-tasks).

Setting it to nil will hide tasks from your exported document.

Or if you want to export DONE items but not TODO items, set it (tasks) to done.

I used tasks:nil. For example, I use this in a sub-tree where I want to exclude tasks from export:

:PROPERTIES: :EXPORT_OPTIONS: tasks:nil :END:
