## Why Get a Channel?

Occasionally, you may wish to review the properties and details for a specific channel in your network to see if you would like to make any changes or edits to that channel. The Inventory Management API enables you to retrieve information about a channel via the Get Channel API endpoint.

When you make this call to the endpoint, you will see all properties for a specific channel, based on the `ChannelID`.

## API Syntax

When using the Get Channel API endpoint it is important to understand the syntax required to make the request. Because the Kevel API is a RESTful API, there is a specific request format that must be followed to ensure the endpoint can process the request. The format is:

`GET https://api.kevel.co/v1/channel/{ChannelID}`

Where:

- `GET` - the type of API request being made.
- `https://api.kevel.co` - the URL for the request.
- `v1` - the API version.
- `channel` - the API endpoint being called.
- `ChannelID` - the ID for the channel you want to retrieve.
