# Get Skill Version

`GET /v1/skills/{skill_id}/versions/{version}`

## Path parameters

- `skill_id` string, required — Unique identifier for the skill. The format and length of IDs may change over time.
- `version` string, required — Identifies the skill version: a version ID, or — where the endpoint accepts it — the literal `latest` for the skill's most recent version. Requests carrying the `skills-2025-10-02` beta header address versions by their Unix epoch timestamp instead (e.g., "1759178010641129").

## Headers

- `anthropic-version` string — The version of the Claude API you want to use. Read more about versioning and our version history [here](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/api/versioning).
- `x-api-key` string — Your unique API key for authentication. This key is required in the header of all API requests, to authenticate your account and access Anthropic's services. Get your API key through the [Console](https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys). Each key is scoped to a Workspace.

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- SkillVersion
  - `created_at` string, date-time, required — ISO 8601 timestamp of when the skill was created.
  - `description` string, required — Description of the skill version. This is extracted from the SKILL.md file in the skill upload.
  - `id` string, required — Unique identifier for this Skill Version. The id addresses the version in paths and pins it in references.
  - `name` string, required — The Skill's immutable kebab-case slug, set at creation from the first upload's SKILL.md frontmatter `name` (or its enclosing directory). Every later upload must resolve to the same value. Also the top-level directory of the Skill's mounted files and the base name of a downloaded archive.
  - `skill_id` string, required — Unique identifier for the skill. The format and length of IDs may change over time.
  - `type` 'skill_version', required — Object type. For Skill Versions, this is always `"skill_version"`.
