# Look up one address or suppression

`GET /v1/suppressions/{id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.volanea.com`
- URL: `https://api.volanea.com/v1/suppressions/{id}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Path form of `GET /v1/suppressions/check`, accepting either a suppression id or a URL-encoded email address.

Use it as a pre-send check. Note that a clean result here does not by itself mean a send will go out: `POST /v1/send` also skips a recipient whose *contact* is unsubscribed (`skipped: "unsubscribed"`), which is a different record from a suppression.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Response `200`

Whether the address is suppressed. Not being suppressed is a 200, not a 404 — a 404 would be ambiguous with a missing route.

- object
  - `suppressed` boolean, required
  - `suppression` Suppression
    - `suppressionId` string, required
    - `projectId` string
    - `email` string, email, required
    - `reason` 'hard_bounce' | 'complaint' | 'manual' | 'unsubscribe', required
    - `source` string, nullable
    - `createdAt` string, date-time, required

## Other responses

- `401`: Missing or invalid API key.
- `422`: Request validation failed (code `validation_error`, 422).
