Use this after listing tracked content (`POST /api/v1/content`) to read the text behind a `content_id`, or to poll `status` while generation runs — `generated_brief` means the brief is ready while the article is still being written. Also exposed as the MCP tool `get_content_detail`. Tracked pages that have not been scraped yet return `null` text fields. Unknown or hidden `content_id` returns 404. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/openapi.json get /api/v1/content/{content_id} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: AthenaHQ API description: >- AthenaHQ API provides programmatic access to manage your websites and prompts for AI-powered content optimization. version: 1.0.0 contact: email: support@athenahq.ai servers: - url: https://api.athenahq.ai description: Production server security: - apiKey: [] tags: - name: Basics description: Core API operations for managing websites and prompts - name: Metrics description: Metrics and analytics endpoints for tracking AI visibility - name: Billing description: Billing and credits endpoints for managing usage - name: Team Management description: Endpoints for managing team members and invitations - name: Groups description: Endpoints for managing groups of websites - name: Content description: >- Endpoints for accessing Content Hub data — tabs, tracked URLs, and per-URL prompt breakdowns. - name: Pitch Workspace description: >- Endpoints for accessing pitch workspace reports — org-scoped pitch runs with competitors, prompts, attributes, and aggregate metrics. paths: /api/v1/content/{content_id}: get: tags: - Content summary: Get Content Detail description: >- Fetch the full detail of a single tracked content item — including the actual text: the content brief (`brief`) and the article/page body (`body`). `body` holds generated drafts, optimize rewrites, snipe articles, authored text, and scraped tracked-page bodies alike.
