Returns one version: the content of every language it holds and what its submission did with each.
Parameters
template_refstringTemplate ID (wat_ prefix) or slug. A value that parses as a valid ID resolves by ID; any other value resolves as a slug.
version_idstringID of the template version (wav_ prefix), as returned by the version list.
Response Payload
idStable Bird identifier for the version.
template_idThe template this version belongs to.
version_numberThe version's sequence number, assigned when it is submitted. Null on a draft, which has not been submitted and has no place in the sequence yet.
submitted_atWhen this version was submitted to Meta. Null on a draft, which has not been submitted, and null for a built-in template's version, which Bird ships already approved rather than submitting on your behalf.
variablesThe variable slots this version's content fills in from the values you supply when sending. Combined across every language, because languages need not declare the same slots: if the English body uses first_name and the French one uses last_name, both appear here. A template with named parameters keys them by name; a positional one keys them by their {{n}} position, as 1, 2 and so on. Supply the slots the language you send declares, by these keys in template.parameters or through components.
languagesThis version's content, keyed by BCP-47 language tag, with what its submission did with each language.
created_atWhen the version was opened. Null for a built-in template's version, which Bird ships rather than stores.
