=== Get Object
experimental[This functionality is *experimental* and may be changed or removed completely in a future release.]
The get saved object API enables you to retrieve a single Kibana saved object
by id.
==== Request
`GET /api/saved_objects/<type>/<id>`
==== Path Parameters
`type` (required)::
(string) Valid options, include: `visualization`, `dashboard`, `search`, `index-pattern`, `config`, and `timelion-sheet`
`id` (required)::
(string) ID of object to retrieve
==== Examples
The following example retrieves the index pattern object with an id of
`my-pattern`.
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
GET api/saved_objects/index-pattern/my-pattern
--------------------------------------------------
// KIBANA
A successful call returns a response code of `200` and a response body
containing a JSON structure similar to the following example:
[source,js]
--------------------------------------------------
{
"id": "my-pattern",
"type": "index-pattern",
"version": 1,
"attributes": {
"title": "my-pattern-*"
}
}
--------------------------------------------------
