# Get a resource's live external detail

`GET /v1/resources/{resourceId}/external/{kind}`

Live detail of one external kind (from the resource's `externalResources` summaries), fetched fresh from the provider and sanitized — never secrets or upstream ids. Nothing is persisted; the response is upstream truth at this moment.

## Path parameters

- `resourceId` string, required — Resource identifier (ULID).
- `kind` string, required — External kind (from `externalResources[].kind`).

## Response `200`

Live external detail

- ExternalResourceDetail
  - `kind` string, required
  - `displayName` string, required
  - `label` string
  - `data` object, required

## Other responses

- `401` — Unauthorized — missing or invalid credentials
- `403` — Forbidden — caller has no workspace or no access
- `404` — Resource (or external kind) not found
- `500` — Internal server error
- `502` — The provider could not be reached
