# Retrieve a Single Story

Use the [Pascal-cased version](/docs/api/graphql/getting-started/field-generation) of a content type name and provide an `id` as filter attribute. The id can be the `id`, `uuid`, or `full_slug` of the story.

```graphql
query {
  PageItem(id: "home") {
    name
    content {
       _uid
       component
    }
  }
}
```
