# Kv Get

`POST /api/v1.kv.get`

KV Get

## Request body

- KvGetIn
  - `namespace` string, nullable
  - `key` string, required
  - `consistency` 'strong' | 'weak' — Consistency level for reads. Strong consistency (also known as linearizability) guarantees that a read will see all previous writes. Weak consistency allows stale reads, but can save one or more round trip to the leader.

## Response `200`

- KvGetOut
  - `expiry` integer, nullable — Time of expiry
  - `value` integer[], nullable
  - `version` integer, required — Opaque version token for optimistic concurrency control. Pass as `version` in a subsequent `set` to perform a conditional write.

## Other responses

- `400`
- `401`
- `403`
- `422`
