# get_post

> Get a post with Posted MCP.

Read a posting group, its media and individual account outcomes.

## Workflow

```mermaid theme={"system"}
flowchart LR
  step0["Choose a posting group"] --> step1
  step1["Read each account and post index"] --> step2
  step2["Decide whether action is safe"]
```

## Access and behavior

A Read-only, Write or Administrator OAuth grant can call this tool within the user’s current team role. Tools are listed and callable only when the current grant and role permit them.

The root and additionalPosts represent the ordered sequence. deliveries contains a separate state for every account and postIndex. A group can be partial even if some posts were published.

## Arguments

| Argument | Required | Type or meaning |
| - | - | - |
| `postId` | Yes | Posting-group UUID returned by list\_posts or create\_post. |

<Accordion title="Complete input schema">
  ```json theme={"system"}
  {
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
      "postId": {
        "type": "string",
        "format": "uuid",
        "pattern": "^([0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[1-8][0-9a-fA-F]{3}-[89abAB][0-9a-fA-F]{3}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}|00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000|ffffffff-ffff-ffff-ffff-ffffffffffff)$"
      }
    },
    "required": ["postId"],
    "additionalProperties": false
  }
  ```
</Accordion>

## Example call

The client initializes the MCP connection before sending this JSON-RPC call. Example records are fictional.

```json theme={"system"}
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "get_post",
    "arguments": {
      "postId": "22222222-2222-4222-8222-222222222222"
    }
  }
}
```

## Example result

Posted returns this object in `structuredContent` and a JSON text content block. A tool failure sets `isError`; never treat an error as a completed mutation.
