Get a project
Projects are the main container for work items in a workspace. Read a single project by id.
Path Parameters
slug:requiredstringThe workspace slug. It appears in your Plane URLs — in https://app.plane.so/my-team/projects/, the slug is my-team.
pk:requiredstringThe project id.
Response shaping
fields:optionalstringComma-separated list of fields to return. Unrequested keys are omitted, not returned as null. id always comes back. Pass all for every requestable field. An unknown name is a 400. See Sparse fields.
Requestable here: archive_in, archived_at, close_in, cover_image, cover_image_url, created_at, created_by_id, cycle_view, default_assignee_id, default_state_id, description, emoji, estimate_id, external_id, external_source, guest_view_all_features, icon_prop, id, identifier, intake_view, is_issue_type_enabled, is_time_tracking_enabled, issue_views_view, logo_props, module_view, name, network, page_view, priority, project_lead_id, start_date, state_id, target_date, timezone.
expand:optionalstringComma-separated relations to embed: default_assignee, project_lead.
Expansion is separate-key — ?expand=state keeps state_id and adds a state object next to it. ?fields= and ?expand= are independent: naming a relation in ?fields= is a 400, and expanded objects survive field filtering. See Expanding relations.
