Get one step result with its run, evidence, Form provenance, comments, telemetry, and Activity outcome.

## Access

Use a credential with `commentary.research.read`.

Provider access, workspace membership, and agent grants are enforced separately. A token does not expand access to a repository or resource. [Set up developer access](/docs/build/developer-access).

## Parameters

| Name | Location | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `studyId` | path | string | Yes | Research Study id. |
| `sessionId` | path | string | Yes | Draft review or Research session id. |
| `stepId` | path | string | Yes | Research workflow step id. |

## Call the endpoint

Replace path placeholders and your credential. For body operations, create `request.json` using the required fields above; this command does not invent resource identifiers or consent.

```bash
curl --request GET \
  'https://commentary.dev/api/v2/research-studies/<studyId>/sessions/<sessionId>/steps/<stepId>' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <your-token>'

## Recover from errors

Use the returned status and error body. Correct invalid fields before retrying; reconnect or narrow the target for authentication and permission errors. For conditional writes, reload the latest version before preparing a new request. Respect rate-limit headers and retry only when the operation’s idempotency contract permits it.
