        List all questions and answers for your organization, ordered by creation time (newest first).


        **Authentication behavior:**

        - **Personal Access Token (PAT) keys**: Only questions asked by that specific user are returned (user-level isolation)

        - **Organization-wide API keys**: All questions in the organization are returned
