Parameters (3)
Accept
(string, header, optional)
The media type for the response, including API version. Must allow `application/vnd.phylopic.v2+json`. If omitted, `*/*` (a wildcard allowing all types) is assumed, and the response's `Content-Type` header will be `application/vnd.phylopic.v2+json`.
build
(integer, query, optional)
Specifies the index of the build for the returned data. Only the current build is valid. Leaving this parameter out will yield a temporary redirect (`307`) to the same URL but with the current `build` value added to the query.
uuid

The UUID of the entity.
