# Get project JSON

`GET /editor/json{id}`

Get project metadata as JSON. For microdata/survey projects, the response includes all variables by default. Use `exclude_variables=1` to omit variables from the response (useful when only study-level metadata is needed, e.g. for comparison workflows).

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Query parameters

- `version` string
- `exclude_variables` 0 | 1
- `exclude_private_fields` 0 | 1
- `external_resources` 0 | 1
- `admin_metadata` 0 | 1

## Response `200`

successful operation

## Other responses

- `400` — Bad request - project not found or access denied
