# Get Notification

GraphQL endpoint: `/user`

A single notification of the current user's, by id — for resolving one already known by id rather than reading a list. Null when the id isn't the caller's, which reads the same as one that never existed.

`kind` says what happened and `subjectId` names what it happened to. `subjectStatus` is that subject's status as it stood when the notification was written, not as it stands now, so read the subject itself before acting on it. `context` carries any further id needed to reach the subject.

## Query

```graphql
query ($id: ID!) {
  notification (id: $id) {
    id
    text
    kind
    subjectId
    subjectStatus
    context
    status
  }
}

```

## Variables

```json
{
  "id": "00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000002"
