    Using the API for Chatbots, you can integrate your system with SendPulse’s
    chatbots service and get detailed information about your account, bots,
    dialogs.

                
    On the right, there is a button for authorizing requests made on this page.
    Click “Authorize,” then insert the ID and Secret from your account.

                
    To perform a request directly from the page, click the "Try it out" button
    within each method block. Then fill in input fields if any (for URL
    parameters, the description is right below the URL request; for body
    parameters, the description is under the “Scheme” button to the right of the
    example), and click “Run.” You'll find the server response and description
    of received parameters below.

      x-ai-description: >-
        Retrieves a paginated list of dialogs across all connected messaging
        channels (Telegram, WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Viber, etc.). A
        'dialog' in SendPulse represents a conversation thread between the bot
        and a specific contact. This endpoint is the primary entry point for
        inbox management, agent assignment workflows, and CRM-style conversation
        tracking across all channels simultaneously.
      x-ai-reasoning-instructions:
        - >-
          Use `size` to control page volume — default is typically 20; reduce to
          10 for faster responses when previewing.
        - >-
          For cursor-based pagination, always carry `search_after` from the
          previous response into the next request instead of using `skip` for
          large datasets, as it is more performant.
        - >-
          Combine `order: desc` with `search_after` to stream new incoming
          dialogs in real time.
        - >-
          If the user asks about a specific channel, note that this endpoint
          returns all channels — use the returned `Dialog` objects to filter
          client-side by channel type.
        - >-
          When total exceeds size, inform the user that multiple pages exist and
          offer to iterate.
      x-ai-responding-instructions:
        - >-
          Report the total number of dialogs found and how many are returned in
          the current page.
        - >-
          Highlight the `search_after` cursor value if more pages are available,
          and explain how to use it for the next request.
        - >-
          If the list is empty, suggest checking whether any channels are
          connected in the account.
        - >-
          Group or summarize dialogs by channel type when presenting to the
          user, if the data allows.
      x-ai-suggestions:
        - Use `order=desc` to get the most recently active dialogs first.
        - Use `size=50` for bulk exports, `size=10` for quick inbox previews.
        - >-
          Paginate with `search_after` using the last `last_inbox_message.id`
          from the previous response.

        large campaigns or automation flows.

          Check the remaining message quota before recommending bulk send
          operations — warn the user if the balance is critically low.

          Use the list of tags and variables returned here to validate inputs
          for other endpoints that accept tags or variable names.
        - >-
          If bot or contact counts are near plan limits, proactively suggest an
          upgrade or cleanup.
      x-ai-responding-instructions:
        - >-
          Summarize the plan name and key quotas (messages remaining, bots,
          contacts) in a human-readable way.
        - >-
          If any quota is exhausted or near the limit, highlight it explicitly
          and suggest remediation steps.

          List available tags and variables only if the user explicitly needs
          them — otherwise keep the response concise.

        Retrieves a full inventory of connected bots across all supported
        channels (Telegram, WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.). This is the primary
        discovery endpoint — use it to map available automation assets before
        routing messages, checking bot health, or selecting a target bot for a
        campaign. Bot status and unread message counts serve as lightweight
        health indicators.

          Call this endpoint first when the user needs to interact with any bot
          but hasn't specified a bot ID yet.

          Filter the result by channel type if the user has specified a platform
          (e.g., 'my Telegram bots').
        - >-
          Check `status` field to warn the user if the target bot is inactive
          before proceeding with message sending.
        - Use `unread` count to surface bots that may need attention.

          Present bots grouped by channel for clarity if multiple channels are
          present.

          them.

          If the list is empty, inform the user that no bots are connected and
          suggest connecting one via the SendPulse dashboard.

          proceeding.

          Use the returned bot `id` with `sendMessage` or `getSubscribers`
          endpoints.
