List all chats

client.Chats.ListChats(ctx, query) (*ListChatsPagination[Chat], error)
GET/v3/chats

Retrieves a paginated list of chats for the authenticated partner.

Filtering:

  • If from is provided, returns chats for that specific phone number
  • If from is omitted, returns chats across all phone numbers owned by the partner
  • If to is provided, only returns chats where the specified handle is a participant

Pagination:

  • Use limit to control page size (default: 20, max: 100)
  • The response includes next_cursor for fetching the next page
  • When next_cursor is null, there are no more results to fetch
  • Pass the next_cursor value as the cursor parameter for the next request

Example pagination flow:

  1. First request: GET /v3/chats?from=%2B12223334444&limit=20
  2. Response includes next_cursor: "20" (more results exist)
  3. Next request: GET /v3/chats?from=%2B12223334444&limit=20&cursor=20
  4. Response includes next_cursor: null (no more results)

HealthStatus ChatHealthStatus

[BETA] Current health for a chat. Always present — chats start at HEALTHY and may shift based on engagement and delivery signals on the conversation. Many AT_RISK or CRITICAL chats on a single line increase the risk of line flagging.

Switch on status to surface chat and line health in your UI — the enum is the long-term contract. Each status carries a doc_url that deep-links to the relevant section of the Chat Health guide. To gate a send, act on the response rather than the status: a 403 is the authoritative answer.

See the Chat Health guide for what each status means and how to react.

DocURL string

Deep-link to the relevant section of the Chat Health guide for this status.

formaturi
Status string

Current health bucket for the chat. See the Chat Health guide for what each value means and how to react. doc_url deep-links to the relevant section.

OPTED_OUT — the recipient sent STOP, UNSUBSCRIBE, OPTOUT, CANCEL, END, or QUIT. The keyword must be the whole trimmed message, never part of a longer one: STOP counts, please stop does not. Most keywords must match exactly, including case. OPT OUT is the exception — it matches in any casing, with or without the space or a hyphen, so opt out, Opt-Out and optout all count. It clears as soon as they reply again: any later message from them that is not itself an opt-out keyword opts them back in immediately — a reply in any conversation with you counts, the same way the block does.

OPTED_OUT marks only the conversation the keyword arrived in. The block below is wider than the mark, so a conversation still reading HEALTHY can be blocked as well — gate on the 403, not on the status. Group threads are never marked and are never blocked.

Linq enforces this: while a recipient is opted out, every send to them is rejected with 403 (error code 2024) before the message is queued, across every chat and every line on your account. Nothing is delivered, including a final courtesy message — to send one, set override_optout: true on that single request.

One of the following:
const ChatHealthStatusStatusHealthy ChatHealthStatusStatus = "HEALTHY"
const ChatHealthStatusStatusAtRisk ChatHealthStatusStatus = "AT_RISK"
const ChatHealthStatusStatusCritical ChatHealthStatusStatus = "CRITICAL"
const ChatHealthStatusStatusOptedOut ChatHealthStatusStatus = "OPTED_OUT"
