asset_get
Fetch one Asset with its Registrations — where it has been placed, and how each placement went. Also how you poll a running registration.
Fetches a single Asset together with all its Registrations and their states. This is also how you poll a registration you started with asset_register: a running Registration is still in progress.
Input
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
asset_id |
ast_* |
yes | The Asset to fetch. |
Output
{ asset: { …, registrations: [...] } } — the Asset metadata (see asset_list) plus a registrations array. Each Registration carries:
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
id |
reg_* |
The Registration id. |
advertiserId |
acc_* |
The advertiser whose library it was placed in. |
provider |
string |
e.g. meta. |
status |
'running' | 'ready' | 'failed' |
running = still processing; ready = live; failed = retryable. |
providerIdentifier |
string |
The provider’s own id for the file, once ready. |
failureReason |
string |
Present when status is failed. |
Example
“Is that image ready in the Acme account yet?”
Claude calls asset_get({ asset_id: 'ast_…' }), finds the Registration for that advertiser, and reports its status.
Errors
- Only
ready(finalized) Assets are returned — an Asset stillpendingreads as not found. - Unknown ids and Assets owned by another organization both come back the same way, so an id can’t be probed for existence.

Reference
Fetch one Asset together with its Registrations — where it has been placed, and how each placement went.
This is also how you poll a registration you started: a running Registration is still in progress. Video can stay running for several minutes while the provider processes it, which is normal.
Input
| Argument | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
asset_id |
string | yes | The Asset id (ast_…). |
