# Get Case Detail

`GET /developer/cases/{case_id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.openintake.ai` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.openintake.ai/developer/cases/{case_id}`

Get detailed case information for manual matching.

Routes through the active CaseProvider (SA or FV) so Filevine customers
get their project details here instead of a 404 from the SA-only path.
Developer-only; used to preview a case before manually matching.
