# Retrieve an adjustment

GET https://api.letsdeel.com/rest/adjustments/{id}

Retrieves a single adjustment by its id. Use it to track an adjustment after creation: approval happens inside Deel rather than over the API, so polling `status` is how a caller learns the outcome. Requires the `adjustments:read` scope.

 **Token scopes**: `adjustments:read`

Reference: https://developer.deel.com/api/eor-endpoints/adjustments/get-contract-adjustment

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — ## Authentication The Deel API uses bearer tokens to authenticate requests. All API calls must be made over HTTPS — calls over plain HTTP or without authentication will fail. ```curl curl -X GET 'https://api.letsdeel.com/rest/v2/contracts' \ -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR-TOKEN-HERE' ``` [Learn more about authentication](/api/authentication)
- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — Standard OAuth2 security scheme based on https://swagger.io/docs/specification/authentication/
