Response
A successful first execution returns HTTP 200 with the operation result under data. A replay may return saved request state instead. The example shows one supported response, not every optional field. Returns the public project details, customer settings, current source structure revision, and every translated output version.{

Operation notes
- This action does not return transcript text or raw segment documents. Use transcripts_get for transcript content and translations_list for language-work metadata.
- Missing optional nested fields are omitted from serialized JSON. Output URLs are empty strings until the corresponding output is available.
- The project status summarizes the workflow and newest translated version; inspect individual translations[] entries when managing several languages.
- The error field describes a stored processing failure; a successfully retrieved failed project still returns a normal result.
- Stored failures return VoiceCheap error codes and fixed messages. Use the code and current resource state to decide how to recover.
