# Get Document Chunk

`GET /documents/{document_id}/chunks/{chunk_id}`

Gets a document chunk by its document and chunk ID.

## Path parameters

- `document_id` string, uuid, required — The id of the document.
- `chunk_id` string, uuid, required — The ID of the chunk.

## Headers

- `partition` string, nullable — An optional partition to scope the request to. If omitted, accounts created after 1/9/2025 will have the request scoped to the default partition, while older accounts will have the request scoped to all partitions. Older accounts may opt in to strict partition scoping by contacting support@ragie.ai. Older accounts using the partitions feature are strongly recommended to scope the request to a partition.
