## Get Locate Rate

`v1.locates.get_locate_rate_by_id(InstrumentIDOrSymbolinstrument_id)  -> LocateGetLocateRateByIDResponse`

**get** `/v1/locates/rates/{instrument_id}`

Fetch the cached locate borrow rate for one instrument. Rates refresh
periodically; `404` means no rate is currently cached for the instrument.

### Parameters

- `instrument_id: InstrumentIDOrSymbol`

  Instrument identifier: either an instrument UUID or a symbol (symbol for equities, OSI for options). Non-UUID inputs are resolved server-side.

### Returns

- `class LocateGetLocateRateByIDResponse: …`

  - `data: LocateRate`

    A locate borrow rate for an instrument.

    - `instrument_id: str`

      Instrument id the rate applies to.

    - `rate: str`

      Borrow rate, expressed as a decimal (e.g. 0.037012 for 3.7012%).

    - `as_of: Optional[datetime]`

      When the rate was requested from the locates venue.

### Example

```python
from clearstreet import ClearStreet
