# Get one template

`GET /v1/templates/{slug}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.briefgate.dev`
- URL: `https://api.briefgate.dev/v1/templates/{slug}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Fetch a single template by slug. Resolves to the account's own template, or to a public built-in one — so an unauthenticated agent can still read the shared library.
