# Get Experiment Run

> Retrieve a single experiment run.

Identified by `run_id`. Returns the run with its lifecycle status, timing,
score, and document progress counts. Returns 404 if no run with that ID
exists.

Fetch an experiment run by `run_id`. Use this while polling for
`lifecycle.status`, then inspect child records with [List Experiment Run
Results](/api-reference/workflows/experiments/results/list) or metrics
with [Get Experiment Run Metrics](/api-reference/workflows/experiments/metrics/get).
