# Get a package

> Get one package by its package_type and package_name (URL-encode a slash in a REST path: web%2Fworker).

<div class="g1t-endpoint"><span class="g1t-method" data-method="get">GET</span><code>/workspaces/{workspace}/packages/{package_type}/{package_name}</code></div>

Not found when you may not pull it, as for one that does not exist.

A name with a slash is one URL-encoded path segment: `/workspaces/acme/packages/container/web%2Fworker`. Not found when you may not pull it.

- **Authentication:** Optional. Public data can be read without a token; send one to see what is private.
- **MCP tool:** [`package`](/reference/mcp/#package) with `action` `get`, and the same inputs
- **Scope:** An access token needs [`packages:read`](/guides/authentication/#scopes).
