# Get Card

## Get Card API - Mock Testing

For the Get Card API, the testing process is dependent on the card objects created using the Create Card API mock.

* **Valid Card IDs:**
  * When a card object is successfully created using the Create Card API mock using the static BIN method (i.e., the static BIN followed by any random numbers as the PAN), a cardID is returned in the response.
  * When the Get Card API mock is triggered using a valid cardID a success response is returned.
* **Invalid Card IDs:** Using an invalid will return a 404 error response.
* **Other Error Responses:** Depending on the credentials used and the syntax of the request URL, other error messages (e.g., 4XX errors) can be triggered.

### Testing Notes <a href="#testing-notes" id="testing-notes"></a>

* 5XX errors cannot be triggered using the Get Card API mock.
* The Card ID generated using the static BIN method (i.e., the static BIN followed by any random numbers as the PAN) will remain valid until deleted via the Delete by Card ID API and can be tested using the Get Card mock.
* Alternatively, the static card 5100260000099208 will consistently return a GET card response that includes Network Token and Account Updater details.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.verygoodsecurity.com/cmp/developer-resources/guides/testing/get-card.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
