# Get artifact version

`GET /groups/{groupId}/artifacts/{artifactId}/versions/{version}`

Retrieves a single version of the artifact content.  Both the `artifactId` and the
unique `version` number must be provided.  The `Content-Type` of the response depends 
on the artifact type.  In most cases, this is `application/json`, but for some types 
it may be different (for example, `PROTOBUF`).

This operation can fail for the following reasons:

* No artifact with this `artifactId` exists (HTTP error `404`)
* No version with this `version` exists (HTTP error `404`)
* A server error occurred (HTTP error `500`)

## Query parameters

- `dereference` boolean

## Response `200`

The content of one version of one artifact.

## Other responses

- `401` — Common response for all operations that can return a `401` error indicating authentication is required.
- `403` — Common response for all operations that can return a `403` error indicating the user is authenticated but not authorized.
- `404` — Common response for all operations that can return a `404` error.
- `500` — Common response for all operations that can fail with an unexpected server error.
