API basics

Lists and the event feed

Cursor pagination, and the event feed that is the complete record of everything that happened.

Cursors

Texa API lists page with a cursor, never an offset. An answer gives you next; pass it as after to get the page after it. has_more says whether there is one.

Shell
curl "https://api.texadesk.com/v1/events?limit=100" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TEXA_API_KEY"
JSON
{"events": [{"id": "evt_431", "type": "conversation.reply", "...": "..."}],
 "next": "evt_530", "has_more": true}
Shell
curl "https://api.texadesk.com/v1/events?after=evt_530&limit=100" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TEXA_API_KEY"

limit is at most 1,000 for events. The SDKs page for you:

for event in texa.events(after=saved_cursor):
    handle(event)
    saved_cursor = event["id"]

The event feed

GET /v1/events holds every event of every conversation in your account, in order: replies, action requests, handovers, closes, calls, media, quality scores. It is the complete record. Webhooks push the same events, but if your server was down, read the feed from your last cursor instead of waiting for retries.

  • types takes a comma-separated list (conversation.reply,conversation.handover) for only those.
  • Keep the last id you handled; it's your cursor.
  • Events are the same in the feed and in webhooks, except that webhooks add environment.

Texa Desk API lists

The Texa Desk API pages by number: page=2, with meta giving counts. Each endpoint in the reference says its page size.
