Hey,

I got some trouble with making get request to get data from Singleton. In new docs I didn`t find anything on this subject.

So if for content request looks GET /content/item/{model} for singleton it should be GET /singleton/item/{singleton name} ??

</div>

```auto
GET /content/item/{model}

```

to get the content for a singleton model. Please make sure that the singleton state is set to “published”

Having trouble too

In both my code and the playground I get

```auto
{
  "error": "Permission denied"
}

```

when calling `GET /content/item/TermsAndConditions1`

If you don’t use an API-Key for the REST requests, then make sure that you assign a role to the public access user (settings \> api & security) that has read permissions for the targeted content model

Can You confirm if the correct header for passing the APi key please?

Cockpit-Token

or

api-key?

TIA

From experimentation it looks like it is now the `api-key` Header

Yepp, 👉`api-key` is correct
