Fetch one memory by id (the original text you stored)
POST/api/v1/memory/get
In the SDKs: get
Returns a single stored memory by the id that /store or /list returned — the original text plus its metadata, and nothing internal. Same visibility as /list: an id that is not a stored memory, an invalidated memory, or an id from another store is a 404.
Authentication
Every call carries your API key in an X-API-Key header. Keys are created in the console.
X-WOS-ModeloptionalPicks the memory model that answers. Omit it and the account default is used.
Request body
JSON, required. Out-of-range values are refused with a 400 rather than quietly clamped.
user_idstring requiredThe store to operate on. Stores are explicit: create one first or use the built-in "default".
memory_idstring requiredThe memory id from /store or /list.
Returns
The 200 body. Fields nested one level are shown as parent.child.

Rate limits per tier and the full status list are in Errors & limits.
In the SDKs
The Python, TypeScript, and Rust SDKs wrap this endpoint so you do not build the request by
hand — pip install wontopos, npm i wontopos, or cargo add wontopos, then the method list is on the SDK reference. A coding agent can take the whole API in one file
at llms.txt, or over MCP with npx -y wontopos-mcp.
