# Get Pool

`GET /v1/pools/{pool_id}`

Get a specific pool by ID.

Use the `include` parameter to fetch related resources in the response.
Related resources are returned in the `included` array following the JSON:API pattern.

Note: The `include_machines` parameter is deprecated. Use `include=machines` instead.

## Path parameters

- `pool_id` string, uuid, required

## Query parameters

- `include_machines` boolean — [Deprecated] Use include=machines instead. Include full machine details
- `include` string, nullable — Comma-separated list of related resources to include. Allowed values: machines. Example: include=machines
