# Get placement metadata

> Read supplied tags and supplied subtype for one exact retained occurrence.

`get_placement_metadata`

Read supplied tags and supplied subtype for one exact retained occurrence. Historical names stay bound to their saved definition; current applicability remains separate.

<Note>This command name is absent from deployment evidence dated 2026-09-20. Hosted availability for this current definition is unverified; inspect your connected catalog before invoking it. Verify the command and its input schema in the selected environment.</Note>

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

This read does not start a verification job.

## 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.

## 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}
{
  "binding": {
    "workspaceId": "workspace_example",
    "projectId": "project_example",
    "watchId": "watch_example",
    "occurrenceId": "sha256:1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111",
    "captureId": "capture_example"
  },
  "revision": 0,
  "asOfRevision": 0,
  "items": [],
  "inferenceEffect": "none"
}
```

## 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 |
| - | - | - | - |
| `projectId` | string | Required | project ID from create/list. minLength: 1; maxLength: 200 |
| `watchId` | string | Required | watch ID from create/list. minLength: 1; maxLength: 200 |
| `occurrenceId` | string | Required | occurrence ID from create/list. pattern: "^sha256:\[a-f0-9]\{64}\$" |
| `captureId` | string | Required | capture ID from create/list. minLength: 1; maxLength: 200 |
| `evidenceHash` | string | Required | evidence hash; see schema. pattern: "^sha256:\[a-f0-9]\{64}\$" |
| `asOfRevision` | integer | Optional | as of revision; see schema. minimum: 0; maximum: 9007199254740991 |

### Validation and omitted values

Read supplied tags and subtypes for one saved occurrence and capture.

Names remain bound to their saved definition snapshots. The response reports current applicability separately. Reading makes no model request.

## 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.

* **`binding`** (object, required).
* **`revision`** (integer, required): Optimistic concurrency revision; supply it as expectedRevision on the next write. minimum: 0; maximum: 9007199254740991
* **`asOfRevision`** (integer, required): minimum: 0; maximum: 9007199254740991
* **`items`** (array, required): Records in this bounded page. maxItems: 21
* **`inferenceEffect`** (string, required): must equal "none"

## Errors and retries

Follow the error recovery before retrying this read. Preserve the selected workspace, project, filters and feed. Recovering a read does not require an idempotency key or another verification job. Operation-specific errors include `CLASSIFICATION_PRECONDITION_CHANGED`, `CLASSIFICATION_METADATA_SCHEMA_UNAVAILABLE`, `CLASSIFICATION_ACCESS_DENIED`.

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 |
| - | - | - |
| `GET /v1/projects/{projectId}/classification-metadata/occurrences` | 200 | The URL selects projectId. Remaining read arguments go in query parameters; asOfRevision is parsed as a number. |
