# Get wallet by ID

> Get a specific wallet by its unique ID from the Privy API

You can get a specific wallet by its ID from the Privy API.

This is a wallet-centric abstraction. To find all wallets belonging to a user or organization, [filter wallets by the entity ID](/wallets/wallets/get-a-wallet/get-all-wallets).

<View title="NodeJS" icon="node-js">
  To get a wallet by ID, use the `get` method on the `wallets()` interface of the Privy client.

  ### Usage

  ```tsx theme={"system"}
  const wallet = await privy.wallets().get(walletId);
  ```

  ### Parameters and Returns

  Check out the [API reference](/api-reference/wallets/get) for more details.
