# Get competitor refresh

> Read a competitor refresh schedule and the latest cycle counts.

`get_competitor_refresh`

Read a competitor refresh schedule and the latest cycle counts. Available for an existing saved schedule even when new discovery admission is disabled. Missing rows remain limited to the selected corpus and never prove a link was lost.

<Note>Hosted MCP registration verified. These schemas describe the development contract; confirm supported inputs with tools/list. Generic CLI/HTTP calls require a matching development server. Configure LINKTRAIL\_API\_URL; production does not expose these command routes.</Note>

| Access           | Behavior         |
| ---------------- | ---------------- |
| `discovery:read` | Reads saved data |

Reading saved data does not start a verification job. Mutations can change saved records or access; the effects below apply.

## Example request

Connect through [MCP](/guides/connect-mcp), [CLI](/guides/connect-cli), or [HTTP](/guides/connect-http). Replace example identifiers with records from your workspace.

<CodeGroup>
  ```json MCP theme={null}
  {
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {
      "name": "get_competitor_refresh",
      "arguments": {
        "setId": "set_example"
      }
    }
  }
  ```

  ```bash CLI theme={null}
  linktrail call get_competitor_refresh --args '{"setId":"set_example"}'
  ```

  ```bash HTTP theme={null}
  curl "$LINKTRAIL_API_URL/v1/commands/get_competitor_refresh" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $LINKTRAIL_API_KEY" \
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    --data '{"setId":"set_example"}'
  ```
</CodeGroup>

## Returned result

Illustrative data validated against the documented response schema. IDs and dates are examples, not a live account capture. MCP returns this data in `structuredContent` and in a text content block; generic HTTP and CLI return the JSON result directly.

```json theme={null}
{
  "schedule": {
    "v": 1,
    "set_id": "set_example",
    "set_revision": 1,
    "cadence": "weekly",
    "paused": false,
    "last_started_at": null,
    "last_completed_at": null,
    "next_due_at": "2026-09-13T12:00:00.000Z",
    "member_limit": 2,
    "budget_unit": "owned_inventory_lookups"
  },
  "latest_cycle": null
}
```

## Input fields

Omit optional fields when you do not want to supply them. Null is accepted only where listed. Unknown input properties are rejected.

| Field   | Type   | Presence | Meaning and constraints                                                                      |
| ------- | ------ | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `setId` | string | Required | Identifier of the set returned by its create or list operation. minLength: 1; maxLength: 200 |

### Validation and omitted values

No saved schedule returns schedule and latest\_cycle as null. Reading an existing schedule does not require new discovery admission.

## Output fields

Fields inside optional or nullable parents apply only when that parent exists. [Common schema conventions](/reference/schemas) explain evidence states, empty lists and extensions.

| Field                          | Type          | Presence | Meaning and constraints                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        |

## Errors and retries

The command is annotated idempotent. Reuse an accepted idempotency key when the input provides one; changing the payload under a reused key can conflict.

See [error recovery](/reference/errors) for status, scope, cooldown, cursor and retry handling. Unknown observations are result data and do not establish loss.

## HTTP resource routes

These existing resource routes share the operation’s domain behavior. Their parameter placement, status and response envelope can differ from generic invocation. See [HTTP route details](/reference/http/routes).

| Method and route                          | Success | Details                                          |
