`GET /email/campaigns/{id}`

## Request

Retrieve a single campaign by `id`, including its status, targeting, content references, and schedule. To see the individual emails a sent campaign produced, filter [List sent emails](#get-email) by `campaign_id`; for a pre-send readiness report, use [Validate a campaign](#get-email-campaigns-id-validate). Requires the `campaigns:read` capability.
