Get an entry with its assets

APIs
1

Hello,

When getting data from one single entry using the API, the include array is not supported therefore i do not get the details of the linked assets & contents.
Is there a way to get it, apart from doing several API calls one after the other?
This seems far from optimal for performances reasons

Thanks and regards,

Hi Marie, you are right that the include parameter is only acceptable when retrieving entry collections, here is an example workaround in curl:

GET /spaces/{space_id}/environments/{environment_id}/entries?sys.id={entry_id}&include=2

Then you will find the links under “includes”/“assets” in the API response; If you are using official SDKs, the links will be automatically resolved.

Thanks a lot for the helpful tip Alma, this works perfectly!
