# `bird email suppressions get`

## Usage

```bash
bird email suppressions get <suppression-id> [flags]
```

## Description

Fetch one suppression record by its ID: the address, why it's suppressed, how the record originated, and which categories it blocks. Use `bird email suppressions list` with `email` when you only know the address. Compare complete addresses across all cursor pages because that filter matches by prefix.

## Examples

```bash
bird email suppressions get <suppression-id>
bird email suppressions get <suppression-id> -f text
# the id to pass comes from
bird email suppressions list
```
