Returns a single Space by id, scoped to the calling organization. Returns 404 when the space exists in another org or is outside the token’s space allow-list — same shape as truly-missing so a restricted token can’t probe for the existence of out-of-scope spaces.

Pass fields to trim the response to the properties you actually need — e.g. ?fields=name,html_url returns just those (plus id, always). Unknown names are rejected rather than ignored.

Required scope: spaces:read. Rate-limit cost: 1.

media_statuses

required

The space’s media-status catalog, in display order — the domain of media status values in this space (writes accept an entry’s id or name). Focal’s standard statuses (Draft, In progress, Approved, …) unless the space has configured its own.

Array<object>

object

required

Stable status id. Media status writes accept this id (or the name); reads return the name. Renames keep the id — match on it rather than on name when tracking statuses over time.

string

name

required

Human-readable status label — the string media payloads carry as status.

created_at

string format: date-time

updated_at

required

string format: date-time

html_url

required

Browser URL that opens this space in the Focal web app. Hand this to users as a clickable link.

400

The request was malformed (invalid cursor, unknown type, validation failure, etc.). error.code is bad_request.

application/json

Canonical error envelope. code is stable across releases and intended for programmatic handling; message is human-readable. details only appears for validation failures and lists the offending fields.

Resource doesn’t exist or is outside the token’s space allow-list. The two cases share a response shape so a restricted token can’t probe for the existence of out-of-scope spaces. error.code is not_found.
