  • https://api.in.residency.elevenlabs.io (Production India)
  • https://api.sg.residency.elevenlabs.io (Production Singapore)
  • text_query (string, required) — The search query text for full-text and fuzzy matching
  • agent_id (string, optional, nullable) — Agent id (agent_…) or speech engine external id (seng_), resolved to the same underlying resource.
  • visited_agent_ids (list of string, optional, nullable) — Filter conversations where any of these agents participated. Can not exceed 50 values.
  • visited_agent_branch_ids (list of string, optional, nullable) — Filter conversations where any of these agent branches participated. Can not exceed 50 values.
  • triggered_procedure_ids (list of string, optional, nullable) — Filter conversations where any of these procedures were triggered. Can not exceed 50 values.
  • call_successful (enum, optional, nullable) — The result of the success evaluation
    • Allowed values: success, failure, unknown, error
  • call_start_before_unix (integer, optional, nullable) — Unix timestamp (in seconds) to filter conversations up to this start date.
  • call_start_after_unix (integer, optional, nullable) — Unix timestamp (in seconds) to filter conversations after to this start date.
  • call_duration_min_secs (integer, optional, nullable) — Minimum call duration in seconds.
  • call_duration_max_secs (integer, optional, nullable) — Maximum call duration in seconds.
  • rating_max (integer, optional, nullable) — Maximum overall rating (1-5).
  • rating_min (integer, optional, nullable) — Minimum overall rating (1-5).
  • has_feedback_comment (boolean, optional, nullable) — Filter conversations with user feedback comments.

  • data_collection_params (list of string, optional, nullable) — Data collection filters. Repeat param. Format: id:op:value where op is one of eq|neq|gt|gte|lt|lte|in. For in, pipe-delimit values. An empty value matches conversations where the field was not collected (id:eq:), and neq with an empty value matches where it was (id:neq:). eq is exact equality. gt|gte|lt|lte require a numeric value.
  • dynamic_variable_params (list of string, optional, nullable) — Dynamic variable filters. Repeat param. Format: name:op:value where op is one of eq|neq|gt|gte|lt|lte|in. For in, pipe-delimit values. An empty value matches conversations where the variable was not set (name:eq:), and neq with an empty value matches where it was (name:neq:). eq is exact equality. gt|gte|lt|lte require a numeric value. Names containing ':' cannot be expressed.
  • tool_names (list of string, optional, nullable) — Filter conversations by tool names used during the call.
  • tool_names_successful (list of string, optional, nullable) — Filter conversations by tool names that had successful calls.

  • include_invalid_tool_calls (boolean, optional, default: false) — Also match tool calls that never ran.
  • main_languages (list of string, optional, nullable) — Filter conversations by detected main language (language code).
  • exclude_statuses (list of enum, optional, nullable) — Exclude conversations with the given statuses. Useful for hiding in-progress / processing conversations from list views.
    • Allowed values: initiated, in-progress, processing, done, failed
  • termination_reasons (list of string, optional, nullable) — Filter conversations by their stored termination_reason (metadata.termination_reason). Repeat param to match any of several.
  • page_size (integer, optional, default: 20) — Number of results per page. Max 50.

  • topic_ids (list of string, optional, nullable) — Filter conversations by topic IDs assigned during topic discovery.
  • sort_by (enum, optional) — Sort order for search results. 'search_score' sorts by search score, 'created_at' sorts by conversation start time.
    • Allowed values: search_score, created_at
  • cursor (string, optional, nullable) — Used for fetching next page. Cursor is returned in the response.

  • has_more (boolean, required) — Whether there are more results available
  • meta (ListResponseMeta, optional)
  • next_cursor (string, optional, nullable) — Cursor for the next page of results
