# GET Get the jackets section

Retrieve the jackets section of the customiser: the heading (title) and the text under it (description) that the customer customiser shows above the jackets. It also publishes hidden, which hides the jacket step from shoppers. The jackets themselves are a separate resource. A customiser that has never saved this section reads the defaults (title and description null, hidden false) with updated_at null, and the read does not create the section. The operation is read-only, has no side effects, and is always safe to retry. Requires the `customisers:read` scope. A 404 problem with code `resource_not_found` means the customiser does not exist on the store your API key belongs to. A 401 problem means the key is missing, invalid, or expired; a 403 problem with code `insufficient_scope` means the key lacks `customisers:read`; a 429 problem means too many requests: wait `retry_after` seconds, then retry. Error responses use RFC 9457 problem+json with a machine-readable `code` and a `request_id` to quote when contacting support.
