## Get Claude-generated file metadata

**get** `/v1/compliance/apps/chats/generated-files/{claude_gen_file_id}`

Returns metadata for a file the assistant created via tool use.

Metadata is read from Filestore (the durable backing store for
per-conversation tool outputs). Use the sibling `/content` endpoint to
download the bytes.

### Path Parameters

- `claude_gen_file_id: string`

  The generated-file id (e.g., 'claude_gen_file_abc123') as returned in `chat_messages[].generated_files[].id` from GET /apps/chats/{claude_chat_id}/messages.

### Header Parameters

- `"x-api-key": optional string`

### Returns

- `id: string`

  Opaque generated-file id, e.g. 'claude_gen_file_abc123'.

- `claude_chat_id: string`

  The chat this generated file belongs to

- `created_at: string`

  File creation timestamp from Filestore

- `filename: string`

  Display name of the generated file

- `md5: string`

  Lowercase hex MD5 of the stored file, as recorded by Filestore. Null when no stored hash is available. The sibling `/content` endpoint also sets a `Content-MD5` header (base64 per RFC 1864) computed over the exact served bytes.

- `mime_type: string`

  MIME type as recorded by Filestore, when available

- `size_bytes: number`

  Size in bytes of the stored file, when available
