Look up Knowledge by externalId
Resolve a partner-supplied externalId to its GovWorx internal id. externalId is passed as a query parameter (not a path segment) because it is stored verbatim and may contain ’/’, which does not round-trip through a route path. externalId is only unique per (tenant, provider) — pass provider to disambiguate if more than one provider has used the same externalId for this tenant (409 if omitted and ambiguous). Returns the matching entry or 404 if none exists for the tenant. Token must have the ‘View Knowledge’ or ‘Manage Knowledge’ permission.
Query Parameters
Partner-supplied externalId to resolve. Sent as a query parameter so ids containing '/' round-trip safely.
Disambiguates when more than one provider has used this externalId for the tenant.
