# get_action_with_children

> Returns an action and all its child content (drafts, scheduled, posted) in one call.

Returns a parent action ticket and all its child content tickets (drafts, scheduled, posted) in one call. Each child includes status, `scheduled_for`, `posted_url`, assignee fields, and a deep link to its editor or detail page.

## When to use

* The user asks about a specific action by ticket code ("Show me ABC-051 and its content").
* The user wants to know what content already exists against an action before drafting more.
* You're about to call `create_content_draft` and want to confirm an action doesn't already have a queued draft.

## When not to use

* The user wants the brand-wide priority list — use [`get_geo_priorities`](/mcp/reads/get-geo-priorities).
* The user wants attribution for a specific posted URL — use [`get_attribution_report`](/mcp/reads/get-attribution-report).

## Inputs

Input is a ticket code like `"ABC-051"`. Brand resolved from auth context — a ticket from another brand returns null even if the same sequence number exists in your brand.
