# List channels

GET https://api-chat.parstechai.com/v1/robots/{robot_id}/channels

Returns the channels attached to a robot. Poll this after sending a page owner to the authorisation URL: `is_active` turns true when they finish.

Reference: https://docs-parschat.parstechai.com/api-reference/channels/list-channels

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — Your API key, issued by ParsChat sales. One key per account, spanning every robot you own. Send it as `Authorization: Bearer pk_live_…`.

## Request

### Path parameters

- `robot_id` (string, required) — The robot's id, as returned by the create call.

## Response

### 200

The robot's channels.

- `data` (list of Channel, optional)

## Errors

### 400 Bad Request Error

The request itself is malformed: a parameter is missing, unparseable, or out of range. Unlike 422, the request never reached validation of its contents.

- `error` (ErrorError, optional)

### 401 Unauthorized Error

The key is missing, wrong, revoked, or past its expiry date. All four answer `invalid_key`: telling an expired key from an unknown one would confirm to whoever holds a leaked key that it was once real.

- `error` (ErrorError, optional)

### 403 Forbidden Error

The call is understood but not permitted: a missing role, a lapsed plan, or exhausted capacity.

- `error` (ErrorError, optional)

### 404 Not Found Error

No such resource, or it belongs to another partner. We return 404 rather than 403 here, because a 403 would confirm the id exists.

- `error` (ErrorError, optional)

### 429 Too Many Requests Error

You are calling the API too fast. `details` names the limit you are held to. This never means an automated reply to an end customer was discarded: those are queued, not dropped.

- `error` (ErrorError, optional)

### 500 Internal Server Error

Something failed on our side. Retry with backoff, and quote `request_id` if it persists.

- `error` (ErrorError, optional)

### 503 Service Unavailable Error

A service we depend on (a channel provider, or our AI service) is unavailable. Retry with backoff.

- `error` (ErrorError, optional)

## Types

### Channel

A connected surface, such as an Instagram page. A channel always belongs to one robot.

- `id` (string, optional) — ParsChat identifier for the channel.
- `type` (enum, optional) — The kind of surface this channel connects.
  - Allowed values: `telegram`, `instagram`, `goftino`, `widget`, `crisp`, `gap`, `whatsapp`
- `robot_id` (string, optional) — The robot that owns this channel.
- `username` (string, optional) — The connected account's handle. Present once the page owner has authorised.
- `is_active` (boolean, optional) — Whether the channel is receiving traffic. False while a handshake is pending or after a plan lapses.
- `connected_at` (datetime, optional) — When the channel went live.

### ErrorError

- `code` (string, optional) — Stable machine-readable code. Branch on this, not on the message.
- `message` (string, optional) — Human-readable explanation. Wording may change.
- `request_id` (string, optional) — Log this. It is what lets support find your exact request.
- `details` (map from string to any, optional) — Machine-readable context for the code. On `capacity_exhausted` it carries `occupied`, `requested` and `capacity`; on `rate_limited`, `limit_per_minute` and `window_seconds`.
