# Retrieve an In-Memory DB Restore

You can retrieve an In-Memory DB restore using the `UUID` of its snapshot and restore. It is found in the response body when an In-Memory DB restore is created or when you retrieve a list of In-Memory DB restores using `GET`.

## Endpoint

Use a [<mark style="color:blue;">region-specific endpoint</mark>](https://docs.ionos.com/sections-test/guides/databases/in-memory-db/api-howtos/..#endpoints) from the list to retrieve an In-Memory DB restore: `https://in-memory-db.{region}.ionos.com/snapshots/{snapshotId}/restores/{restoreId}`

## Request

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** Remember to replace the sample values in the request with valid ones.
{% endhint %}

To retrieve a single In-Memory DB restore, you need the `id` from your `create` response.

```bash
curl -X 'GET' \
  'https://in-memory-db.de-fra.ionos.com/snapshots/a8784665-3d99-5464-af32-30a2967f58e7/restores/39fe1580-552b-5182-8939-a3ac6c38f94c' \
