# get( … )

To get payload details, status and if resolved & signed: results (transaction, transaction hash, etc.) you can `get()` a payload.

Note! Please don't use *polling*! The XUMM API offers Webhooks (configure your Webhook endpoint in the [Developer Console](https://apps.xumm.dev)) or use a subscription to receive live payload updates (for non-SDK users: [Webhooks](https://xumm.readme.io/docs/payload-status)).

You can `get()` a payload by:

* Payload UUID

  ```javascript
  const payload = await Sdk.payload.get("aaaaaaaa-bbbb-cccc-dddd-1234567890ab");
  ```
* Passing a created Payload object (see: Sdk.payload.create)

  ```javascript
  const newPayload: XummTypes.CreatePayload = {txjson: {...}}
  const created: XummTypes.CreatedPayload = await Sdk.payload.create(newPayload)
  const payload: XummTypes.XummPayload = await Sdk.payload.get(created)
  ```

If a payload can't be fetched (eg. doesn't exist), `null` will be returned, unless a second param (boolean) is provided to get the SDK to throw an Error in case a payload can't be retrieved:

```javascript
await Sdk.payload.get("aaaaaaaa-bbbb-cccc-dddd-1234567890ab", true)
```

### Object

```typescript
async Sdk.payload.get (
  payload: string | CreatedPayload,
  returnErrors: boolean = false
): Promise<XummPayload | null>
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.xaman.dev/js-ts-sdk/sdk-syntax/xumm.payload/get.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
