# `/sys/wrapping/unwrap`
The `/sys/wrapping/unwrap` endpoint unwraps a wrapped response.
## Wrapping Unwrap
This endpoint returns the original response inside the given wrapping token.
Unlike simply reading `cubbyhole/response` (which is deprecated), this endpoint
provides additional validation checks on the token, returns the original value
on the wire rather than a JSON string representation of it, and ensures that the
response is properly audit-logged.
This endpoint can be used by using a wrapping token as the client token in the
API call, in which case the `token` parameter is not required; or, a different
token with permissions to access this endpoint can make the call and pass in the
wrapping token in the `token` parameter. Do _not_ use the wrapping token in both
locations; this will cause the wrapping token to be revoked but the value to be
unable to be looked up, as it will basically be a double-use of the token!
| Method | Path |
| :----- | :--------------------- |
| `POST` | `/sys/wrapping/unwrap` |
### Parameters
- `token` `(string: "")`  Specifies the wrapping token ID. This is required if
the client token is not the wrapping token. Do not use the wrapping token in
both locations.
### Sample Payload
```json
{
"token": "abcd1234..."
}
```
