Returns one version with its variables and text in every language. A workspace draft is editable, while published workspace versions are immutable. A built-in template exposes its current catalogue content through a synthetic published version.
Parameters
template_refstringThe template's ID (smt_…) or slug.
version_idstringThe version to read or reset.
Response Payload
idTemplate version ID.
template_idThe template this version belongs to.
version_numberSequential publication number. Null for the draft; a built-in template reports 1.
statusWhether the version is the editable draft or published. Published workspace versions are immutable and remain published after a later version goes live. A built-in template's synthetic published version projects the current catalogue entry.
Possible values: draft, published
revisionThe version revision. A draft revision advances with each metadata or content change. Published workspace versions are frozen; a built-in template's synthetic version reports 0.
variablesVariables inferred from the version's text. Every language in a publishable SMS version uses the same set. Built-in templates may apply additional typed constraints described by each variable.
languagesFull content for each language, keyed by canonical BCP-47 tag.
default_languageThe language this version treats as its default.
created_atWhen the version was created. Null for a built-in template's synthetic version.
published_atWhen the version was published. Null for the draft and for a built-in template's synthetic version.
