# Get workspace skill

> <Info>This API is in beta. Endpoints, fields, and behavior may still change, so avoid depending on it in production.</Info>

Returns a skill with its instructions.

Skills belong to the workspace your credential is for. With a personal access token, that's the token's workspace, and there's no parameter to choose another one.

Skills need the Builder plan or higher. Below it, this returns a `403`.

This is limited to 120 requests per minute, shared with [List workspace skills](/api-reference/list-workspace-skills). A signed-in session has its own limit, and every personal access token for the workspace shares one. Some workspaces have a different limit.

<Note>Call this as any member of the workspace, with a personal access token sent as a Bearer token, or from a signed-in session. A read-only token is refused even though this endpoint only reads, and workspace API keys aren't accepted.</Note>

<Warning>The response includes fields beyond the ones documented here. Don't rely on undocumented response fields, as they can change at any time.</Warning>
