Get Document by File

Returns the document ID and the revision built from one version of a document file. Use it to turn a citation into its document: query records and research task results cite a document file by documentAssetId and documentVersion.

When several revisions were built from the same file version, the newest is returned, whatever its state. For the revision in use, read the document’s active revision with Get Document.

Authorization

Authorizationstringheaderrequired#

Every request authenticates with an API key: Authorization: Bearer {API_KEY}. App endpoints take an app API key; knowledge endpoints take a knowledge base API key (Get Started).

Keep keys server-side; never embed them in client code. Requests with a missing or invalid key fail with HTTP 401 (unauthorized).

Path parameters

knowledge_base_idstringrequired#

Knowledge base ID: the last segment of the Service API endpoint shown in the knowledge base's API Access dialog (…/knowledge-fs/spaces/<knowledge base ID>), and the segment after /datasets/new/ in the address bar.

Query parameters

document_asset_idstringrequired#

Document file ID: id from List Document Files, or documentAssetId in a citation. Must be a UUID.

Length: 1–255

document_asset_versionintegerrequired#

The document file's version, or documentVersion in a citation. A document file's version is always 1.

Range: >= 1

Responses
