# Get a catalog entry

> One entry of a workspace's catalog, by kind and its id or key (a project's slug, a package as npm:<name>, an owner's username), with every relation it has: what it depends on, who owns it, where it deploys, what documents it, what it exposes and uses. search_context finds entries.

<div class="g1t-endpoint"><span class="g1t-method" data-method="get">GET</span><code>/workspaces/{workspace}/context/{kind}/{id}</code></div>

`id` is the entry's id, or its key: a project's or app's slug, `npm:&lt;name>` (or `cargo:`, `go:`, `pypi:`) for a package, a username for an owner, `&lt;project>/production` for an environment. `data` depends on the kind: a package's version and dependencies, an API's routes, an app's production address.

- **Authentication:** Required. Send an [access token](/reference/api/#authentication) as `Authorization: Bearer`.
- **MCP tool:** [`search`](/reference/mcp/#search) with `action` `entity`, and the same inputs
- **Scope:** An access token needs [`memory:read`](/guides/authentication/#scopes).

## Errors

A failed request answers with one of these statuses and a body like `{"error": {"code": "not_found", "message": "Repository not found."}}`. See [errors](/reference/api/#errors).

| Status | Code | When |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 401 | `unauthenticated` | A token is required, or the one sent is not valid. |
| 403 | `forbidden` | The token is valid but not allowed to do this, such as a member-only change or an agent token outside its repository. |
| 404 | `not_found` | It does not exist, or you cannot see it. |
| 422 | `invalid` | The input is not valid. `message` says which field and why. |
