# List user-visible app channels

GET https://cessy.ai/api/rest/tenant-id/app-id/channels

Lists channels visible to the authenticated OAuth user and scoped to agent participants from this app.

Reference: https://docs.cessy.ai/runtime-api-template/channels/list-channels

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — OAuth/JWT bearer with the 'runtime' scope that resolves to a user principal. API keys and agent service tokens are rejected by user-delegated operations.

## Request

### Query parameters

- `type` (string, optional) — Optional channel type filter, for example dm, group, entity, or ext-slack.
- `status` (enum, optional) — Optional channel status filter.
  - Allowed values: `active`, `closed`, `pinned`
- `agentId` (string, optional) — Optional agent participant id filter within this app.
- `limit` (integer, optional, default: 200) — Maximum number of entries to return.
- `q` (string, optional) — Optional case-insensitive channel search query.
- `view` (enum, optional) — Use summary for compact channel list rows.
  - Allowed values: `summary`
- `workspaceId` (string, optional) — Optional Workspace runtime selector for preview or validation calls. If supplied with X-CES-Workspace-ID, both values must match.

### Headers

- `X-CES-Workspace-ID` (string, optional) — Optional Workspace runtime selector header. If supplied with workspaceId, both values must match.

## Response

### 200

Visible channels

- `channels` (list of map from string to any, required)

## Errors

### 401 Unauthorized Error

- `details` (any, optional)
- `code` (string, optional) — Stable machine-readable failure category when available.
- `executionId` (string, optional) — Protected execution-log lookup identifier when execution started.
- `correlationId` (string, optional) — Identifier for related requests and diagnostics when available.
- `effectState` (enum, optional) — Authoritative confirmation that the command effect is absent.
  - Allowed values: `rejected`, `rolled_back`

### 403 Forbidden Error

Forbidden

- `error` (string, required)
