description: How to fetch a specific stock item via API
---

# Retrieve a stock item

To [fetch](https://docs.commercelayer.io/core/fetching-resources) a single stock item, send a `GET` request to the `/api/stock_items/:id` endpoint, where `id` is the ID of the resource that you want to retrieve.

## Request

**GET** https://yourdomain.commercelayer.io/api/stock\_items/:id

### **Example**

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Request" %}
The following request fetches the stock item identified by the id "xYZkjABcde":

```shell
curl -g -X GET \
  'https://yourdomain.commercelayer.io/api/stock_items/xYZkjABcde' \
  -H 'Accept: application/vnd.api+json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer your-access-token'
```
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Response" %}
On success, the API responds with a `200 OK` status code, returning a single resource object:
