# Get a bridge

> Read the details and current status of a bridge request

Use an active merchant API key with `read` scope. `id` is the UUID returned by create. Only the owning merchant can read the request. Missing and other-merchant requests return `404`; an invalid UUID returns `400`. Authentication and access errors use `401` and `403`; internal failures use `500`.

**id** `string` *required*

Bridge request UUID returned by create.

```bash theme={"dark"}
curl --url https://api.daya.co/v1/bridges/750e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000 \
  --header 'X-Api-Key: YOUR_API_KEY'
```

## Response
