Gets an artifact.

**Not available yet.** Sylphx Artifacts is declared in the registry but no backend serves it: every call answers `501` with the problem code `UNIMPLEMENTED`.

- **Path** `GET https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/artifacts/artifact`
- **Scope** `artifacts:read`
- **Effect** `read` — nothing is written.
- **Collection** [artifacts](/docs/api/artifacts)

## Request

| Field | Type | What it is |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `name` | `string` | The name of the artifact to get. Required. |

## Response

| Field | Type | What it is |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `name` | `string` | `orgs/{org}/projects/{project}/artifacts/{artifact}`, where `{artifact}` is the digest with `-` for `:`, for example `sha256-4f1c…`. |
| `uid` | `string` | `art_<cell><ulid>`. Output only. |
| `meta` | `ResourceMeta` | Resource metadata. |
| `digest` | `string` | The algorithm-qualified digest of the stored bytes, for example `sha256:4f1c…`. Required. |
| `kind` | `ArtifactKind` | What the Artifact is. Required. One of `image`, `sbom`, `provenance`, `signature`, `bundle`. |
| `media_type` | `string` | The media type, for example `application/vnd.oci.image.manifest.v1+json`. Required. |
| `size_bytes` | `int64` | The size of the stored bytes. Required. |
| `subject` | `string` | The Artifact this one describes, for an SBOM, provenance, or signature. |
| `source_digests` | `string[]` | Digests of the sources and inputs that produced it. |
| `builder` | `string` | The builder identity (a SPIFFE id) that produced it. Output only. |
| `sbom` | `string` | The newest SBOM whose subject is this Artifact. Output only. |
| `provenance` | `string` | The newest provenance attestation whose subject is this Artifact. Output only. |
| `verification_state` | `VerificationState` | Whether the signature and provenance verified. Evidence, never identity: a failure does not change the digest. Output only. One of `unverified`, `pending`, `verified`, `failed`. |
| `verify_time` | `timestamp` | When verification last ran. Output only. |
| `retention` | `RetentionClass` | How long the Artifact is kept. One of `standard`, `referenced`. |
| `legal_hold` | `bool` | A legal hold is active; Delete fails. Output only. |
| `regions` | `string[]` | The regions the bytes are replicated to. Output only. |
| `reference` | `string` | The OCI reference by digest to pull, for example `registry.sylphx.com/<project>@sha256:4f1c…`. Output only. |

### ResourceMeta

| Field | Type | What it is |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `generation` | `int64` | Increases by one on every change to `spec`. Output only. |
| `etag` | `string` | Strong ETag (AIP-154): changes on any change to spec, status, or metadata. Send it back as `If-Match` or `etag` to make Update and Delete conditional; a mismatch fails with ABORTED / 409 `ETAG_MISMATCH`. Output only. |
| `create_time` | `timestamp` | When the Resource was created. Output only. |
| `update_time` | `timestamp` | When the Resource last changed. Output only. |
| `delete_time` | `timestamp` | Set while the Resource is being deleted. Output only. |
| `labels` | `map<string, string>` | Caller-writable, indexed labels (AIP-122 label rules). |
| `annotations` | `map<string, string>` | Caller-writable, unindexed annotations. |
| `display_name` | `string` | Caller-writable human-readable name. |
| `creator` | `string` | The principal that created the Resource. Output only. |
