Get a unit

This endpoint retrieves the full detail record of an existing unit.

A unit is an individual rentable part of a larger property, such as a room in a student house or an apartment within a townhouse, and can be included in a lease contract.

Integrators call this endpoint to look up a unit before displaying, syncing, or updating its data in an external system.

The unit can be identified by its internal reference, its external identifier, or both.
