# policyValue

query · in the family [Policy value record](/reference/policy-value-record/)

## What it does

One scheduled policy value — the key, the value, where it applies, and when.

A PolicyValueRecord by id, within the caller's OWN org-group family; requires authentication. A cross-tenant id reads as null (not-found) AND trips the rootId tripwire server-side.

## Who may call it

Capability area: **Operating policy** — The operational policies and thresholds your organization runs by.

- Owner
- Manager
- An API key whose scope allows `api:policyValue`

## Arguments

| Name | Type | Required | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `id` | [ID](/types/#scalars) `ID!` | yes | The id of the record. |

## Returns

[PolicyValueRecord](/types/PolicyValueRecord/) — A PolicyValueRecord — ONE effective-dated value window in the tenant POLICY schedule, resolved LF → org → the registry default NEAREST-ANCESTOR-WITH-VALUE at every read. Keys are REGISTRY-DEFINED (appointment.lead_time_minutes · appointment.max_advance_days · appointment.no_show_window_minutes · appointment.overbook_allowed · fraud.threshold.cash_over_short · fraud.threshold.discount_override_abuse · fraud.threshold.dispute_chargeback · fraud.threshold.override_pattern · fraud.threshold.return_refund_abuse · fraud.threshold.void_no_sale · training.score_visibility — an unknown key refuses naming the roster; v1 = the fraud-alert thresholds, one per signal kind, default 0 on the 0..100 score scale; future keys join by registry row). Doom cancels a not-yet-effective FUTURE record only (CONFLICT/IMMUTABLE otherwise — supersede instead). The window/key/value fields are wire-IMMUTABLE (the edit surface is caption only). ⚠ The catalog ladder's zone rung is a NAMED registry growth — no v1 key legally scopes there.
