# Get a design

`GET /api/businesses/{business_id}/designs/{design_id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.mymarky.ai`
- URL: `https://api.mymarky.ai/api/businesses/{business_id}/designs/{design_id}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Re-fetch a design you created, with its rendered image URLs + edit link.

Use this to read back a design after `create_design` (or after editing it).
To post it, call `create_post` with this `design_id` — the media is taken from
the design automatically.

Errors:
    400 invalid_value: The business_id is not a valid UUID.
    401 authentication_required: API key or token is missing, invalid, or revoked.
    403 permission_denied: Your plan does not include API access, or this business is not in your org.
    404 resource_not_found: No business or design with that ID exists in this business.
    429 rate_limit_exceeded: You sent too many requests this minute.

## Path parameters

- `business_id` string, required: A UUID identifier.
- `design_id` string, required

## Headers

  - `design_id` string, required: Id of the saved design.
  - `template_id` string, nullable: Template the design was filled from (null if unknown).
  - `business_id` string, required: Business the design belongs to.
  - `image_urls` string[]: Rendered page image URLs (one per page). To post this design, call create_post with this design_id — the media is taken from the design automatically.
  - `width` integer, required: Design width in px.
  - `height` integer, required: Design height in px.
  - `page_count` integer, required: Number of pages in the design.
