# Retrieve a validation run

`GET /api/v1/validation-runs/{id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.sendly.now`
- URL: `https://api.sendly.now/api/v1/validation-runs/{id}`
- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP bearer
  - API key in cookie `better-auth.session_token`
  - OAuth 2 (authorization code, authorization URL `https://app.sendly.now/api/auth/oauth2/authorize`, token URL `https://app.sendly.now/api/auth/oauth2/token`, scopes: `validation:read`)

How far a run has got and what it found. The counters are advanced by each batch in the same step that commits the rows they count, so they are a ledger rather than a cached estimate and may be branched on.

There is no total to divide by, deliberately: a list changes size while a run walks it, so a denominator captured when the run started would be wrong by the time you read it. A run is finished when `status` is `completed` or `failed`, never when a percentage reaches 100.

Requires the `validation:read` scope — View your email validation runs and their results.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, uuid, required: Resource id.

## Response `200`

The run

- EmailValidationRunV1: One bulk validation run over a list.
  - `completed_at` string, date-time, nullable, required
  - `created_at` string, date-time, required
  - `deliverable_count` integer, required
  - `failure_reason` string, nullable, required: Set only on `failed`. Prose for an operator; never parse it.
  - `id` string, required
  - `list_id` string, nullable, required
  - `processed_count` integer, required: Addresses checked so far. There is deliberately no total: a list changes size while a run walks it, so a denominator captured up front would be wrong by the time you read it.
  - `risky_count` integer, required
  - `started_at` string, date-time, nullable, required
  - `status` 'pending' | 'running' | 'completed' | 'failed', required
  - `undeliverable_count` integer, required

## Other responses

- `401`: `invalid_api_key` or `invalid_session` — missing or invalid credentials.
- `403`: `scope_missing`, `project_access_denied`, or `project_disabled`.
- `404`: `resource_not_found` — no validation run with this id belongs to the authenticated project.
- `422`: `validation_error` — query, path, or body parameters did not match the schema.
- `429`: `rate_limited` — see `Retry-After` and the `RateLimit` headers.
- `500`: `internal_error`.
