Retrieve a chat

GET/api/v1/chats/{chat_id}

Retrieve a chat. is_running is true while a turn works, and awaiting_input_kind names a question or approval the chat waits on. Answer it in the app, or through the interaction operation of the run that asked: the run_id of the chat's newest message.

Required access

Credentials: delegated token, user session, user API key

User API keys use the owner’s current permissions, subject to any key restrictions. Capability scopes below apply to automation account keys and delegated tokens.

Scope: chats:read

Only the member who started the chat, through their user API key or an integration acting for them: a chat is private to them. Another member's chat answers 404, also to a workspace owner or admin, who may only stop its turn or delete it, signed in to the app, and reads none of it. Automation accounts have no chats.

Authorization

AuthorizationBearer <token>

A user-owned key prefixed gsmc_uk_, bound to one organization. It follows its owner's current membership, role and resource permissions, optionally restricted to read-only access. No X-Org-Id header is needed; a conflicting organization is rejected. Credential creation, personal connection setup and human attestations require a signed-in session. Runs are private to the calling user; sharing an agent grants access to your own personal memory of it, never to the agent's own memory.
