### Answer --- Based on the available sources, I don't have specific documentation about an SMS API endpoint that lists SMS/chat records with pagination limits. However, the List Calls API does have a default limit of 50 records with a max of 1000: [(1) ]() >

limit

- Limit the number of calls returned. Default 50, Max 1000. To retrieve more than 1000, use

pagination_key

to continue fetching the next page. If you're querying chat/SMS records, a similar pagination pattern may apply. You can use the

pagination_key

parameter to fetch additional pages beyond the default 50. I don't have information in the sources about whether this is a recent change or if it has always been this way for SMS-specific endpoints. Check out these potentially useful sources: - [Create Outbound SMS]() - [List Calls]() - [Send & receive SMS]() Would you like me to provide a general answer, or would you prefer to reach out to Retell support for specifics on the SMS/chat listing API?

Thanks for tagging me @clientele. I'll look through relevant sources and get back to you shortly.

### Answer The documentation for the 1000 call limit is in the List Calls API reference. [(1) ]() Specifically, the

limit

query parameter states: > Limit the number of calls returned. Default 50, Max 1000. To retrieve more than 1000, use pagination_key to continue fetching the next page. You can find this at: [List Calls]()

### Answer ### Answer For the List Chat API (

GET /list-chat

) , the documentation does not specify a

limit

parameter or pagination options. [(1) ]() However, the List Chat Agents API does have pagination parameters: [(2) ]() -

limit

- Can range between 1 and 1000, with a default of 1000 -

pagination_key

- Used to continue fetching the next page The List Chat endpoint (

client.chat.list()

) returns chat records but the available documentation doesn't explicitly document a limit parameter for this endpoint. [(1) ]() If you're experiencing a 50-record limit that wasn't there before, this may be a recent change not yet reflected in the documentation I have access to. Check out these potentially useful sources: - [List Chat]() - [List Chat Agents]() For confirmation on whether this is a recent change to the Chat/SMS listing API, I'd recommend reaching out to Retell support directly: - Visit [Contact Sales]() - Visit [)

### Answer Based on the List Chat API documentation, the endpoint

GET /list-chat

does not show any query parameters for

limit

or

pagination_key

. [(1) ]() The documented response format shows chats returned as an array:

javascript
import Retell from 'retell-sdk';
const client = new Retell({
  apiKey: 'YOUR_RETELL_API_KEY',
}) ;
const chatResponses = await client.chat.list() ;
console.log(chatResponses) ;

The response example shows a flat array structure

[{ "chat_id": "...", ... }]

without any pagination metadata. However, the documentation I have access to does not explicitly state whether there is a limit or that "all chats" are returned. If you're seeing exactly 50 records returned, there may be an undocumented default limit in place. For confirmation on the actual behavior and any recent changes, I'd recommend reaching out to Retell support: - Visit [Contact Sales]() - Visit [)

### Answer ### Answer I don't have documentation in my available sources that explicitly confirms or denies the 50-chat limit or the lack of pagination for the List Chat endpoint. The sources I have access to discuss: - The List Calls API pagination using

pagination_key

and a default limit of ~1000 records [(1) ]() [(2) ]() [(3) ]() - The Create Chat Completion workflow, which covers creating chats and retrieving chat details [(4) ]() However, none of these sources contain specific details about the List Chat endpoint's pagination behavior or limits. If you're being told there's a strict 50-chat limit with no pagination support, this is information I cannot verify or contradict based on my available documentation. Check out these potentially useful sources: - [List Chat]() - [Create Chat Completion]() - [List Calls]() For definitive confirmation on Chat API limitations, I'd recommend reaching out to Retell support directly: - Visit [Contact Sales]() - Visit [) Would you like me to provide a general answer based on my knowledge, or would you prefer to wait for official confirmation from Retell?
