# Read a Deal Application contract

`deal_applications.get_contract`

Discover the sections, question block keys, answer shapes, allowed values, repeatable groups, and supported operations in a Deal Application. Omit section_key for a compact section index, then read one section at a time for large applications.

[Deal applications guide](https://docs.levr.ai/mcp/resources/deal_applications.md)

Availability depends on live discovery and your access to the record. Do not infer MCP calls from REST paths.
