# Get Pose

`GET /prims/poses`

Returns the current pose of a prim in WandelScript (WS) 6D format — a 3D position and 3D rotation vector.
Rotations are in radians, position in millimeters.
The pose can be returned in either local or world coordinate system.

## Query parameters

- `coordinate_system` 'world' | 'local' — pose in either world coordinates or local coordinates
- `rotation_type` 'cartesian' | 'quaternions' — pose in either quaternions or cartesian vectors
- `prim_path` string, required — Prim path of the object

## Response `200`

Successfully retrieved the pose

- union
  - WSPose
    - `pose` number[] — Pose in rotation vector format (WS)
  - QuatPose
    - `pose` number[] — Pose in quaternion vector format (WS)

## Other responses

- `404` — Invalid prim path
- `422` — Validation Error
- `500` — Internal server error: Unable to fetch pose
