Use this to check a deployment's status after creating it, or to inspect the runtime configuration of an existing deployment. **Required Permissions** Your root key must have one of the following permissions: - `environment.*.read_deployment` (to read deployments in any environment) - `environment..read_deployment` (to read deployments in a specific environment) ## OpenAPI ````yaml https://spec.speakeasy.com/unkey/unkey/openapi-json-with-code-samples post /v2/deployments.getDeployment openapi: 3.1.0 info: description: >- Unkey's API provides programmatic access for all resources within our platform. ### Authentication # This API accepts HTTP Bearer credentials. Public integrations use root keys. Dashboard-originated requests use a short-lived dashboard proxy JWT minted by the dashboard server. Most endpoints require permissions associated with the authenticated principal. When making public API requests, include your root key in the `Authorization` header: ``` Authorization: Bearer unkey_xxxxxxxxxxx ``` All responses follow a consistent envelope structure that separates operational metadata from actual data. This design provides several benefits: - Debugging: Every response includes a unique requestId for tracing issues - Consistency: Predictable response format across all endpoints - Extensibility: Easy to add new metadata without breaking existing integrations - Error Handling: Unified error format with actionable information ### Success Response Format: ```json { "meta": { "requestId": "req_123456" }, "data": { // Actual response data here } } ``` The meta object contains operational information: - `requestId`: Unique identifier for this request (essential for support) The data object contains the actual response data specific to each endpoint. ### Paginated Response Format: ```json { "meta": { "requestId": "req_123456" }, "data": [ // Array of results ], "pagination": { "cursor": "next_page_token", "hasMore": true } } ``` The pagination object appears on list endpoints and contains: - `cursor`: Token for requesting the next page - `hasMore`: Whether more results are available ### Error Response Format: ```json { "meta": { "requestId": "req_2c9a0jf23l4k567" }, "error": { "detail": "The resource you are attempting to modify is protected and cannot be changed", "status": 403, "title": "Forbidden", "type": "https://unkey.com/docs/errors/unkey/application/protected_resource" } } ``` Error responses include comprehensive diagnostic information: - `title`: Human-readable error summary - `detail`: Specific description of what went wrong - `status`: HTTP status code - `type`: Link to error documentation - `errors`: Array of validation errors (for 400 responses) This structure ensures you always have the context needed to debug issues and take corrective action. title: Unkey API version: 2.0.0 servers: - url: https://api.unkey.com security: - bearer: [] tags: - description: Analytics query operations name: analytics - description: API management operations name: apis - description: App management operations name: apps - description: Deployment operations name: deploy - description: Deployment operations name: deployments - description: Environment management operations name: environments - description: Identity management operations name: identities - description: API key management operations name: keys - description: Health check operations name: liveness - description: Permission and role management operations name: permissions - description: Gateway policy operations name: gateway - description: Customer Portal session management name: portal - description: Rate limiting operations name: ratelimit paths: /v2/deployments.getDeployment: post: tags: - deployments summary: Get deployment description: > Retrieve a single deployment by its id.

Public integrations use root keys, while the dashboard proxy uses short-lived JWTs. To authenticate, include the token in the Authorization header of each request: ``` Authorization: Bearer unkey_123 ``` Root keys have specific permissions attached to them, controlling what operations they can perform. Legacy permissions use tuple strings like `api.*.create_key`; resource permissions use Unkey Resource Names plus actions, like `unkey:v1:ws_123:keyspaces/*#create_key`. Security best practices: - Keep root keys secure and never expose them in client-side code - Use different root keys for different environments - Rotate keys periodically, especially after team member departures - Create keys with minimal necessary permissions following least privilege principle - Monitor key usage with audit logs. scheme: bearer type: http x-speakeasy-name-override: rootKey ````
