# Retrieve payment instruction

`GET /payment-instructions/{paymentInstructionId}`

Use this method to retrieve information about a payment instruction.  

To retrieve a payment instruction, you need its paymentInstructionId. Our gateway returned the paymentInstructionId in the response of the [Submit Payment Instruction](https://docs.payroc.com/api/schema/payroc-cloud/payment-instructions/submit) method.  

Our gateway returns the status of the payment instruction. If the payment device completed the payment instruction, the response also includes a link to the payment.
