# Read conversation messages

GET

/v1/conversations/{conversationId}/messages

```sh
curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://example.com/v1/conversations/2489E9AD-2EE2-8E00-8EC9-32D5F69181C0/messages?limit=25' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'
```

Cursor-paginated. Sort is `sequence asc` (natural conversation reading order) — distinct from most list endpoints, which use `createdAt desc`.

## Authorizations

- **[bearerAuth](https://docs.kindgi.com/v0.1.10/reference/api.md#bearerauth)**

## Parameters

### Path Parameters

**conversationId**

required

string format: uuid

ConversationId — opaque branded string (a UUID).

### Query Parameters

**limit**

integer

default: 25 >= 1 <= 100

1..100. Default 25.

**cursor**

string

Where the previous page ended: its `nextCursor`, as it came. A runtime that seals cursors takes one only for the same list, filters and caller, within a day; otherwise `400 bad-input`, and the list starts again without it. Absent → first page.
