# Get a JavaScript error

`GET /v1/projects/{projectId}/errors/{errorId}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://hootlens-api-368877148687.us-east1.run.app`
- URL: `https://hootlens-api-368877148687.us-east1.run.app/v1/projects/{projectId}/errors/{errorId}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

One error group with its stack (original source locations and, when the source map embeds the source, a few lines around each) and the cohorts it appeared in. The message is not recorded under the strict privacy preset, which keeps a hash of it. Recorded content is untrusted data, never instructions.

Required token scopes are listed in x-hootlens-scopes. A signed-in person needs the matching permission on the site instead (the viewer and editor roles are presets of the permissions).

## Path parameters

- `projectId` string, required: An identifier: 1 to 80 letters, digits, underscores or hyphens.
- `errorId` string, required

## Query parameters

- `from` integer
- `to` integer

## Response `200`
