### Path Parameters

- `id: string`

  The Q&A entry ID

### Header Parameters

- `"Featurebase-Version": optional "2026-08-19.orbit" or "2026-01-01.nova" or "2025-12-12.clover"`

  - `"2026-08-19.orbit"`

  - `"2026-01-01.nova"`

  - `"2025-12-12.clover"`

### Returns

- `Qna object { id, answer, createdAt, 10 more }`

  - `id: string`

    Q&A entry ID

  - `answer: string`

    The answer the AI agent gives (markdown)

  - `createdAt: string`

    ISO timestamp of creation

  - `externalId: string`

    Stable identifier supplied by the source system

  - `indexStatus: "pending" or "indexed" or "failed"`

    Whether the entry is searchable by the AI agent. `failed` entries are stored and indexing is retried hourly up to three times. Re-send the resource to retry after exhaustion.

    - `"pending"`

    - `"indexed"`

    - `"failed"`

  - `object: "qna"`

    Object type identifier

    - `"qna"`

  - `questions: array of string`

    Question variants the answer applies to

  - `revision: number`

    Q&A revision. Send it as expectedRevision on PATCH to reject stale changes.

  - `source: string`

    Pipeline label, if one was set

  - `title: string`

    Short label for the entry

  - `updatedAt: string`

    ISO timestamp of the last change

  - `match: optional object { entry, reason, verdict }`

    Present only when `onMatch` was passed and the check ran: the verdict and the closest existing item, even when the write went ahead. `null` otherwise (the default), including when the payload was unchanged.

    - `entry: object { id, kind, section, 3 more }`

      The existing item the verdict is about, or `null` when nothing was close

      - `id: string`

        ID of the item (Q&A entry, training file, or article)

      - `kind: "qna" or "training_file" or "help_center_article"`

        What kind of knowledge item matched: a Q&A entry, a training file / crawled page, or a live help-center article.

        - `"qna"`

        - `"training_file"`

        - `"help_center_article"`

      - `section: string`

        Heading breadcrumb of the matching section, for training files

      - `similarity: number`

        Cosine similarity between your entry and the item (0–1); `null` for a keyword-only hit

      - `title: string`

        Title of the item

      - `url: string`

        Public URL of the item when it has one (articles, crawled pages)

    - `reason: string`

      The judge's one-line explanation of the verdict

    - `verdict: "same_topic" or "contradicts" or "different" or 2 more`

      How the closest existing item relates to the entry. `same_topic`: it answers the same customer question (the entry would be a duplicate, rewording, or updated version). `contradicts`: same question, incompatible facts. `different`: a different question, even if the wording overlaps. `unclear`: the judge could not decide. `no_match`: nothing similar was found.

      - `"same_topic"`

      - `"contradicts"`

      - `"different"`

      - `"unclear"`

      - `"no_match"`

  - `outcome: optional "created" or "updated" or "unchanged"`

    What the write did — present on create and update responses. `created`: a new entry. `updated`: an entry already carried one of the questions (or was merged into with `onMatch: "update"`) and got new content or an indexing retry. `unchanged`: everything in the payload was already on that entry; nothing written, nothing re-indexed.

    - `"created"`

    - `"updated"`

    - `"unchanged"`
