# Get a screen

> Read one screen on a computer.

## Path parameters

<ParamField path="id" type="string" required>
  Computer ID (UUID).
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="screenId" type="string" required>
  Screen ID, or `default` for the boot screen.
</ParamField>

## Response

Returns the [screen](/api-reference/screens/list). An id that does not exist
returns `404` — it is never resolved to the default, because acting on the
wrong screen puts a click on somebody else's desktop.

<RequestExample>
  ```bash cURL theme={null}
  curl https://www.orgo.ai/api/computers/$COMPUTER_ID/screens/screen-1 \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $ORGO_API_KEY"
  ```
</RequestExample>

<ResponseExample>
  ```json 200 theme={null}
  {
    "id": "screen-1",
    "display": ":100",
    "width": 1920,
    "height": 1080,
    "vnc_port": 6000,
    "ws_port": 6081,
    "default": false
  }
  ```
