# Get Deployment Init Config

`GET /v2/deployments/{deployment_id}/init`

Public endpoint called when a widget or embed mounts. Returns customization, limits, captcha settings, and availability.

Does **not** return a PAL identifier - the widget/embed runtime never reads it from `/init`.

No API key required. Origin and browser-context checks apply for non-preview callers.

## Path parameters

- `deployment_id` string, required

## Response `200`
