# Get DID

`GET /identifiers/{did}`

Returns a single DID. The default response is the lightweight `Did`
summary, the same shape as items in `GET /identifiers`. Use `?expand=document,keys`
(or `?expand=all`) to include the resolved DID document and KMS key
mappings inline on the returned object.

Sub-resource collections (controllers, also-known-as, equivalent-ids,
verification methods, verification relationships, services) are
deliberately not folded into this response; fetch them via their
dedicated sub-resource endpoints (`/identifiers/{did}/controllers`,
`/identifiers/{did}/verification-methods`, etc.).
