`GET /v1/developer/collections/{collection}`

**Operation ID:** `getVacationRentalManager`

Returns published, non-transactional Kismet content within the authenticated application grant. No rates, availability, indicative pricing, booking URL, draft state, or vendor payload is returned.

## Contract status

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Maturity | `beta` |
| Required capability | `collections.read` |
| Freshness class | `published-content` |
| Quota cost | `1` |

All operations require a Kismet Developer Bearer credential. Collection and resource authority is resolved from the credential's installation grants; identifiers in the URL never grant access.

## Request parameters

| Name | In | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `collection` | path | string | yes |  |

## Request body

This operation has no JSON request body.

## cURL

Set `KISMET_API_ORIGIN=https://api.ksmt.app` and configure `KISMET_DEVELOPER_API_KEY` in your environment. Run server-credential requests from your backend, not browser code.

```sh
curl --request GET \
  "$KISMET_API_ORIGIN/v1/developer/collections/example-collection" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $KISMET_DEVELOPER_API_KEY" \
  --header "Accept: application/json"
```
