# Retrieve an exam

`GET https://api.cademi.com.br/api/v3/products/{product_id}/exams/{exam_id}`

Operation ID: `exams.get` · API v3

Retrieves an exam by its public ID. The response never includes the correct alternatives; use the answer key operation, which requires the `exams.read_answer_key` permission.

The response includes an `ETag` representing the current revision. Send this value in the `If-Match` header when modifying the exam to avoid overwriting a newer version.

Required permissions: `exams.read`.

## Parameters

| Name | In | Type | Required | Description |
