## Call it

MCP tool call:

```json

  "arguments": {
    "store": "myStore-US",
    "contentReferenceKey": "<contentReferenceKey>"
  }
}

Tool API (early access — contact us):

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.sellersheetai.com/api/v1/tools/aplusContent_getContentDocument \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SELLERSHEET_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"store":"myStore-US","contentReferenceKey":"<contentReferenceKey>"}'
```

## Arguments

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `store` | string | yes | the store ref `<store>-<CC>` (name-country, e.g. 'myStore-US') — one of get_user_context's store_refs, verbatim. |
| `contentReferenceKey` | string | yes | the A+ content document key (from aplusContent_searchContentDocuments). |
| `includedDataSet` | string[] |  | which A+ data types to return, any subset: CONTENTS is the full content document (modules + text + images), METADATA the document's metadata only (name/status/badges/updateTime). Amazon requires this query param; the server sends ['CONTENTS'] when omitted. Pass ['CONTENTS','METADATA'] for both, or ['METADATA'] for a lightweight metadata-only fetch. Allowed: CONTENTS \| METADATA. |

## Result

- `data.contentReferenceKey` — same as input.
- `data.contentDocument` — the contentDocument itself — the server unwraps Amazon's GET envelope, so this dict can be passed straight back into ``aplusContent_updateContentDocument``. Present when CONTENTS was requested (None for a METADATA-only fetch). Fields: - name: content name (maxLength 100) - contentType: 'EBC' (Seller Central A+ — what seller accounts get) or 'EMC' (Vendor Central A+) - contentSubType: optional special-purpose subtype string (often absent) - locale: IETF language tag, HYPHENATED — pattern ^[a-z]{2,}-[A-Z0-9]{2,}$ (e.g. 'en-US', 'en-GB', 'de-DE', 'zh-CN'). Underscores are rejected. - contentModuleList: 1–100 module dicts, each with: - contentModuleType: module type string (e.g. 'STANDARD_HEADER_IMAGE_TEXT') - [module-specific key]: module data with images and text
- `data.contentMetadata` — (if present, i.e. when METADATA was requested) name/status/badgeSet/marketplaceId/updateTime.
- `data.warnings` — (if present) Amazon advisory messages ({code, message, details}).

## Gotchas

- A PREMIUM A+ document can fail with 400 "Unsupported content module type" — read its metadata from aplusContent_searchContentDocuments instead.
