List inbound message rows

Platform module

GET/inbound-messagesinboundMessages.list

Mail received (0550, 1411): forwarded to a project inbox, or a reply to a notification email. People who file documents on the project read its inbox mail; a person reads their own replies. Project inbox mail is filed once, as a Document record of the project, or discarded with a reason. Returns a cursor page of inbound message rows the caller may see. The default order is `received_at` descending, newest first. Supports sparse fieldsets and the filter grammar.

  • Requires the capability knowledge.document.write.
  • OAuth scopes: knowledge.
  • Cursor-paginated: limit, cursor, fields, sort and filter apply.
  • Error statuses: 400, 401, 429. Errors are RFC 9457 problem details.
