Purpose and usage

What this endpoint does

Return one public collection identity, classification, metadata commitment, and lifecycle state.

When to use it

Use after collection discovery when an integration needs one public collection's canonical identity, category, metadata commitment, lifecycle state, and display fields.

OUTCOME · Inspect

What changes

Read-only public projection. It excludes private issuer records, arbitrary metadata, pricing, holdings, listings, payment state, and authority selectors.

WHY IT MATTERS

Gives people and agents a contract-backed way to inspect collection.
Lets clients verify asset identity and provenance without treating display metadata or portfolio visibility as issuance or trading authority.

ISOLATION + AUTHORITY

Issuer, collection, asset, mint, proof, owner, network, supply, metadata, custody, marketplace, and trading boundaries remain distinct. Reading an asset or proof cannot issue, mint, transfer, list, value, or trade it; current trading and matching controls remain frozen unless separately approved.

BEFORE YOU CALL

No bearer credential is required; apply bounded filters and canonical public identifiers where the contract provides them.
Supply the required collection_uuid (path) exactly as defined by the live contract.
Resolve the canonical asset or collection identifier, issuer, network, lifecycle, supply, and required proof freshness.

WHAT TO DO NEXT

Verify issuer, network, collection, supply, mint, proof, and lifecycle commitments together before presenting or acting on the asset.
Refresh collection when its observation time, version, or lifecycle state is no longer adequate for the decision.

AGENT GUIDANCE

Use collection only for the purpose and lifecycle stage described by this operation; do not treat it as authority for an adjacent action.
Supply the required collection_uuid (path) exactly as defined by the live contract.
Distinguish declared metadata, issuer identity, collection membership, mint evidence, supply state, ownership or custody, market listing, price, transfer, and finality.
Use response links and canonical identifiers instead of constructing internal service URLs or scraping the website.

INTEGRATION DECISION

CALLER ACTION: Accept the returned representation or receipt, then verify issuer, network, collection, supply, mint, proof, and lifecycle commitments together before presenting or acting on the asset.
RETRY SAFETY: Repeat only when the integration needs a fresher authoritative projection.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Use returned identifiers and versions as the comparison point for later reads. Re-read market status, owner-scoped order or position state, Core collateral reservation, and settlement receipt; never treat shadow NXG evidence as authority.

INTEGRATION DECISIONinvalid_credentials

CALLER ACTION: Verify the canonical identifier and authenticated owner boundary. A 404 may intentionally conceal a resource outside the caller's authority.
RETRY SAFETY: Do not retry the unchanged identifier repeatedly. Refresh the relevant collection or lookup before choosing another identifier.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Re-read market status, owner-scoped order or position state, Core collateral reservation, and settlement receipt; never treat shadow NXG evidence as authority.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate any ambiguous order or settlement outcome while preserving suspension and Python authority; never enable ingress, publishing, allowlists, markets, or traffic as recovery.

INTEGRATION DECISIONinvalid_credentials

CALLER ACTION: Rebuild the request from the live OpenAPI operation and correct the rejected method, media type, header, parameter, or body field.
RETRY SAFETY: Do not retry the same invalid request. A corrected read may be sent as a new attempt.
STATE RECONCILIATION: Compare the submitted values with the documented constraints before another call. Re-read market status, owner-scoped order or position state, Core collateral reservation, and settlement receipt; never treat shadow NXG evidence as authority.
ESCALATE WHEN: Escalate any ambiguous order or settlement outcome while preserving suspension and Python authority; never enable ingress, publishing, allowlists, markets, or traffic as recovery.

OPERATIONAL NOTES

Security and lifecycle guarantees

Returns one public ACTIVE collection identity, category, display metadata, content commitment, and timestamps. Private issuer records, arbitrary metadata, pricing, holdings, and authority selectors are excluded.
The Rust gateway validates the public contract and routes only to the authoritative owner; clients never address internal services directly.
The tables and examples are derived from the current gateway source OpenAPI. Re-fetch the deployed OpenAPI before execution; deployment status is shown separately on this page.
Only parameters present in the OpenAPI operation are accepted; undocumented query keys fail closed with HTTP 422.

Reference version and availability details

This route is implemented in canonical gateway source and appears in the production OpenAPI snapshot observed 2026-10-02T23:27:55.510Z. Authentication, tenant, feature, venue, and market policy still apply.
