# Get a program release

> Get one release of a program, the bundle it names and the operations it serves.

A release Effective still prepares to serve returns 202 with `state` `provisioning`: poll again after `Retry-After` seconds. A release that serves returns 200 with `state` `ready`, and one that cannot returns 200 with `state` `failed` and its `failure`. An unknown release returns 404 `release_not_found`.
