# Retrieve a suppression

`GET /email_blocks/{id}`

## Response `200`

The suppression.

- EmailBlockResponse
  - `data` EmailBlock, required — Suppression record. Schema fields hidden by the view: `account_id`, `bounce_category`, `dsn_code`, `meta`.
    - `id` string, uuid, required
    - `record_type` 'email_block', required — View-only discriminator.
    - `domain_id` string, uuid, nullable — `null` ⇒ account scope. Stored on the row; exposed here.
    - `group_id` string, uuid, nullable — `null` ⇒ global; set ⇒ group-scoped opt-out.
    - `from` string, nullable — `null` ⇒ not address-scope. (schema: from_address)
    - `to` string, required — Normalized recipient. (schema: to_address)
    - `reason` 'hard_bounce' | 'spam_complaint' | 'unsubscribe' | 'invalid' | 'manual_block', required
    - `source` 'feedback' | 'manual' | 'import' | 'system', required
    - `scope` 'account' | 'domain' | 'address', required — Derived server-side from `domain_id`/`from`; never trusted from the caller.
    - `status` 'active' | 'expired' | 'removed', required
    - `created_at` string, date-time, required
    - `updated_at` string, date-time, required
    - `expires_at` string, date-time, nullable

## Other responses

- `401` — Missing or invalid gateway auth.
- `404` — Resource not found (cross-account lookups and malformed UUIDs also return 404 — no leak).
- `406` — Framework-rendered error (e.g. 406 Not Acceptable, 405 Method Not Allowed, 415 Unsupported Media Type). HTTP status matches the error and the body `code` carries that same status (e.g. `"406"`, not a hardcoded `"500"`). The explicit `500.json` clause still emits `code: "500"` for genuine 500s.
