openemail.chats

Every method in this namespace: its signature, its parameters, what it returns and an example.

Methods

The conversations held with the assistant in the app: list and search them, read one, rename it and delete it. Only the workspace owner reaches them.

chats.list()

List the assistant chats

Scopesthreads:readPages through results
Signature
list(options?: ChatListOptions): Promise<Page<ChatResource>>

Resolves one page of the conversations held with the assistant in the app, newest first, as its Chats page lists them, each with its title, how many messages it holds and when it last changed.

Only the workspace owner reaches the chats: an API key, or an access token the owner connected with every address. A token acting for a member is 403 owner_only, and a key or token limited to particular addresses or domains is 422 capability_unsupported.

Parameters

options.qstring

Searches the titles.

options.sortChatSort

newest (the default) or oldest by the last change, or title. A cursor carries on in the order it was handed out in.

options.limitnumber

Page size, from 1 to 100. The server defaults to 25.

options.cursorstring

The nextCursor of the previous page. Leave it out for the first page.

options.signalAbortSignal

Cancels the request.

options.apiKeystring

Overrides the client's API key for this call only.

Returns

Page<ChatResource> with items, hasMore and nextCursor. Each item has id, title, kind, messageCount and updatedAt.

Example

const page = await openemail.chats.list({ q: 'invoices' }) for (const chat of page.items) console.log(chat.title, chat.messageCount)

Notes

Also available in

API
GET /chats
CLI
openemail chats list

chats.listAll()

Collect every chat into one array

Scopesthreads:readPages through results
Signature
listAll(options?: ChatListOptions): Promise<Array<ChatResource>>

Walks every page of list and resolves with every chat, in the order sort names. One request per page, with the same filters on each.

Parameters

options.qstring

Searches the titles.

options.sortChatSort

newest (the default) or oldest by the last change, or title. A cursor carries on in the order it was handed out in.

options.limitnumber

Page size for each request, from 1 to 100. The server defaults to 25.

options.cursorstring

Starts the walk after this cursor instead of the first page.

options.signalAbortSignal

Cancels the request in flight and the walk with it.

options.apiKeystring

Overrides the client API key for every page of this walk.

Returns

Array<ChatResource> holding every chat.

Example

const chats = await openemail.chats.listAll() console.log(chats.length)

Notes

  • If any page fails the promise rejects and the rows already fetched are discarded.

Also available in

API
GET /chats

chats.iterate()

Stream the chats one at a time

Scopesthreads:readPages through results
Signature
iterate(options?: ChatListOptions): AsyncGenerator<ChatResource, void, undefined>

Returns an async generator that yields one chat at a time, in the order sort names, and requests the next page only once the current one is drained. Nothing is fetched until you consume it, and breaking out of the loop stops the requests.

Parameters

options.qstring

Searches the titles.

options.sortChatSort

newest (the default) or oldest by the last change, or title. A cursor carries on in the order it was handed out in.

options.limitnumber

Page size for each request, from 1 to 100. The server defaults to 25.

options.cursorstring

Starts the walk after this cursor instead of the first page.

options.signalAbortSignal

Cancels the request in flight and the walk with it.

options.apiKeystring

Overrides the client API key for every page of this walk.

Returns

AsyncGenerator<ChatResource, void, undefined> yielding one chat per step.

Example

for await (const chat of openemail.chats.iterate({ sort: 'title' })) console.log(chat.title)

Notes

  • Each page is one request, so a long walk makes many.

Also available in

Scopesthreads:read
Signature
get(id: string, options?: RequestScope): Promise<ChatResource>

Resolves one chat with the assistant by its id: its title, how many messages it holds and when it last changed.

chats.rename()

Rename a chat

Scopesthreads:write

chats.delete()

Delete a chat

Scopesthreads:write
Signature
delete(id: string, options?: RequestScope): Promise<DeletedChatResource>

Deletes a chat with the assistant and every message in it, for good. Nothing the assistant did in the mailbox is undone.

Only the workspace owner reaches the chats: an API key, or an access token the owner connected with every address. A token acting for a member is 403 owner_only, and a key or token limited to particular addresses or domains is 422 capability_unsupported.
