get_support_conversation

Read one support conversation with its message history and the member context a reply needs.

Purpose

Open a single conversation. Returns the thread's state, its message history, and a flattened snapshot of who the member is — subscription status, current plan, member-since date, how many messages they have sent — so a reply can be written without a second round of lookups.

Names, emails and message bodies are returned verbatim. This is the most PII-dense tool in the set. Do not forward its output anywhere outside the conversation with the creator.

Required ability

support-conversation:view

Reading internal notes additionally requires support-conversation:update — see the caveats.

Example prompts

"Open support conversation sup_01HX... and summarise what the member needs."

"Read the last 10 messages in that thread — is this a billing problem or an access problem?"

Failure modes

  • No support conversation found with that id. — unknown id, or the conversation belongs to a project outside the token's scope.
  • Reading internal notes requires the support-conversation:update ability.include_internal was true on a read-only token.
  • TOKEN_MISSING_ABILITY — token lacks support-conversation:view.

Caveats

  • Internal notes are gated behind a write ability on purpose. Reading a private remark about a member takes the same permission as writing one, so a read-only token cannot see them.
  • Attachments are described by kind only (attachment_kinds: ["photo"]). Telegram file_id values are effectively download credentials and are never returned. Fetch files through the dashboard or the REST API.
  • messages is the newest message_limit messages, returned oldest-first so it reads as a transcript. A long thread is truncated at the start, not the end.
  • member.status is the project-scoped member status — it can be lead for someone who has never paid. Anyone who can reach the bot can open a conversation.
  • first_response_at: null means nobody has replied yet. It is stamped once, on the first human reply ever, and is not reset by a reopen.
