# Get an Error

`GET /v3/errors/{eventID}`

**Retrieve a single error event by ID.**

Returns `404` if the event does not exist or if it is not an error event
(use `GET /v3/outputs/{eventID}` for non-error events).

## Path parameters

- `eventID` string, required

## Response `200`

The request has succeeded.

- ErrorEventResponseV3
  - `error` ErrorEvent, required
    - `functionCallTryNumber` integer — The attempt number of the function call that created this event. 1 indexed.
    - `eventID` string, required — Unique ID generated by bem to identify the event.
    - `createdAt` string, date-time — Timestamp indicating when the event was created.
    - `referenceID` string, required — The unique ID you use internally to refer to this data point, propagated from the original function input.
    - `inboundEmail` EventInboundEmail
      - `to` string, required — The email address of the recipient.
      - `deliveredTo` string — The email address of the original intended recipient if the email itself was forwarded.
      - `from` string, required — The email address of the sender.
      - `subject` string, required — The subject of the email.
    - `metadata` object
      - `durationFunctionToEventSeconds` number
    - `eventType` 'error'
    - `functionCallID` string — Unique identifier of function call that this event is associated with.
    - `functionID` string, required — Unique identifier of function that this event is associated with.
    - `functionName` string, required — Unique name of function that this event is associated with.
    - `functionVersionNum` integer — Version number of function that this event is associated with.
    - `callID` string — Unique identifier of workflow call that this event is associated with.
    - `workflowID` string — Unique identifier of workflow that this event is associated with.
    - `workflowName` string — Name of workflow that this event is associated with.
    - `workflowVersionNum` integer — Version number of workflow that this event is associated with.
    - `message` string, required — Error message.
    - `kind` string — Open, extensible error-kind label for typed transformation errors. The platform emits these as plain strings and the set grows over time, so clients must accept unknown values. For render functions the known kinds are `render_source_fetch`, `render_template_fetch`, `render_image_unresolved`, `render_validation`, `render_exception`, `render_upload`, and `render_contract`. Omitted for historical events that pre-date the kind column and for non-transform errors.
