### Path parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|------|------|----------|-------------|
| `operationId` | string | yes | The operation identifier returned by `POST /apps`. |

### Header parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|------|------|----------|-------------|
| `traceparent` | string | no | W3C Trace Context identifier for this request. Clients should send a `traceparent` on every request so the trace can be correlated across services. See https://www.w3.org/TR/trace-context/ for the format. |

### Responses

**200** — Operation details.

Content-Type: `application/json`

Schema:

- schema reference: `#/x-ext/0bebd09`

**401** — Authentication credentials are missing or invalid.

Content-Type: `application/json`

Schema:

- schema reference: `#/components/schemas/Error`

**403** — The caller is authenticated, but the request is not permitted: either the access token does not carry the scope this operation requires, or the operation is disabled for this account.

**404** — The requested resource does not exist.

**429** — Rate limit exceeded. A `429` response may come in one of two shapes: an empty body with `RateLimit-Limit`, `RateLimit-Remaining`, and `RateLimit-Reset` headers; or a JSON `Error` body with `Retry-After` and `RateLimit-*` headers. Clients should honour whichever headers are present and should not assume a JSON body is available on every `429`.
