Created by Richard Saunders, last modified by Alex Pop on 04 May 2018

Requesting an individual entry can be achieved by using the get method on the client's entries property.

get(id: string): Promise<Entry>
get(options: EntryGetOptions): Promise<Entry>

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
id	string	The id of the entry
options	EntryGetOptions	An object specifying the id, language, fields to return and linkDepth.

Returns

A Promise that will resolve with the Entry

Example - using entry id

<h1 id="film_title"></h1>
<p id="film_overview"></p>

(function(Zengenti) {
    // Create a client
    var client = Zengenti.Contensis.Client.create();

    $(function() {
        var movieId = 'd11315cb-4278-455b-84bb-04698db0ebd2';

        // Get the default language variation of the film
        client.entries.get(movieId).then(function(film) {      
            // display the film's title and overview 
            $('#film_title').text(film.title);
            $('#film_overview').text(film.overview);
        }, function(error) {
            console.error(error);
        });

    });
})(Zengenti);

Example - using entry get options

<h1 id="film_title"></h1>
<p id="film_overview"></p>

(function(Zengenti) {
    // Create a client
    var client = Zengenti.Contensis.Client.create();

    $(function() {
        var movieId = 'd11315cb-4278-455b-84bb-04698db0ebd2';   

        // Get the French variation of the film with a link depth of 2
        client.entries.get( { id: movieId, language: 'fr-FR', linkDepth: 2, fields: ['title', 'overview'] }).then(function(film) {
            // display the film's title and overview
            $('#film_title').text(film.title);
            $('#film_overview').text(film.overview);
        }, function(error) {
            console.error(error);
        });

    });
})(Zengenti);
