# List remote sessions

GET /v1/compliance/apps/sessions/remote

List remote sessions (Cowork sessions that run in Anthropic-managed cloud environments) across the organizations the key may read.

Each entry carries session metadata only; retrieve a session's transcript from the messages endpoint. By default the list spans every such organization; pass up to 500 organization_ids[] values to narrow it. Pass 1 to 10 user_ids[] values to scope the list to specific users: that filter matches the session's owning user, so agent-owned sessions are excluded whenever it is set. Bound results in time with the created_at range parameters (created_at.gte, created_at.gt, created_at.lt, created_at.lte; RFC 3339). There is no updated_at filter.

Results are sorted newest first by created_at, with at most limit sessions per page (default 100, maximum 500). Pagination is forward-only: pass the response's next_page value back as page to retrieve the next page, and stop when next_page is null.

# Query parameters

created_at: optional object
- gt: optional string
  
  Filter remote sessions created after this time (RFC 3339 format)
  
  format: date-time
- gte: optional string
  
  Filter remote sessions created at or after this time (RFC 3339 format)
  
  format: date-time
- lt: optional string
  
  Filter remote sessions created before this time (RFC 3339 format)
  
  format: date-time
- lte: optional string
  
  Filter remote sessions created at or before this time (RFC 3339 format)
  
  format: date-time
limit: optional number

Maximum results (default: 100, max: 500)

default: 100, maximum: 500, minimum: 1
organization_ids: optional array of string

Filter to specific child organization identifiers. Omit to enumerate every child organization the key may read.

maxItems: 500
page: optional string

Opaque pagination token from a previous response's next_page field. Pass this to retrieve the next page of results. Clients should treat this value as an opaque string and not attempt to parse or interpret its contents, as the format may change without notice.
user_ids: optional array of string

Filter to sessions owned by specific users (max 10 per request). Agent-owned sessions are excluded when this filter is set.

maxItems: 10

# Headers

"x-api-key": optional string

# Returns

data: array of object
- id: string
  
  Remote session identifier
- agent_id: string or null
  
  Identifier of the automated agent that owns the session. Null for user-owned sessions. At most one of user and agent_id is set.
- claude_project_id: string or null
  
  ID of the project the session is bound to. Null when the session has no project binding.
- created_at: string
  
  When the session was created (RFC 3339, UTC)
  
  format: date-time
- organization_uuid: string
  
  UUID of the organization the session belongs to
- product_surface: string or null
  
  The Claude product the session was created from. Currently cowork_remote, for Cowork sessions started on claude.ai web or mobile. More values will appear as other surfaces launch, so treat any unrecognized value as an unclassified surface rather than an error. Null for sessions created before this field was recorded, for surfaces that do not stamp it, and for unrecognized tag values.
- started_by_user: object or null
  
  A user associated with a remote session.
  - id: string
    
    User identifier
  - email_address: string or null
    
    User's email address. Null when the user is no longer a member of an organization the key may read — id remains set so attribution is preserved. The messages endpoint does not resolve email addresses; this field is always null there.
- status: string
  
  Session lifecycle state. One of active, paused, archived, or failed — the lifecycle states the owning product surface exposes — plus pending, a brief transient state that resolves before any transcript content exists. The list endpoint includes pending; the messages endpoint returns 404 for it. Deleted sessions are not returned on either endpoint. Treat unrecognized values as an unknown state rather than an error.
- updated_at: string
  
  When the session was last modified (RFC 3339, UTC)
  
  format: date-time
- user: object or null
  
  A user associated with a remote session.
  - id: string
    
    User identifier
  - email_address: string or null
    
    User's email address. Null when the user is no longer a member of an organization the key may read — id remains set so attribution is preserved. The messages endpoint does not resolve email addresses; this field is always null there.
next_page: string or null

Opaque page token; pass as page to retrieve the next page. Null when no rows exist after this page. Treat this value as opaque; do not parse or store it long-term, as the format may change without notice.

# Retrieve remote session messages

GET /v1/compliance/apps/sessions/remote/{claude_remote_session_id}/messages

Retrieve one remote session's transcript: user prompts, assistant responses, and tool calls and results. Thinking blocks and images are not included.

Messages are returned oldest first by default; pass order=desc to reverse. Pagination uses the same page/next_page scheme as the list endpoint, with at most limit messages per page (default 100, maximum 1000); keep paginating until next_page is null. tool_use_input_max_bytes and tool_result_max_bytes cap how many bytes of each tool-use input and each tool-result text item are returned; a block shortened by either cap carries truncated: true.

The response embeds the session's metadata under session alongside the paginated data array. On this endpoint session.user.email_address and session.started_by_user are always null; read them from the list endpoint instead.

Returns 404 while the session is still pending, for deleted sessions, and for sessions outside the organizations the key may read. A malformed session identifier returns 400.

# Path parameters

claude_remote_session_id: string

# Query parameters

limit: optional number

Maximum results (default: 100, max: 1000)

default: 100, maximum: 1000, minimum: 1
order: optional "asc" or "desc"

Sort direction. asc (oldest-first) or desc.

default: asc
- "asc"
- "desc"
page: optional string

Opaque pagination token from a previous response's next_page field. Pass this to retrieve the next page of results. Clients should treat this value as an opaque string and not attempt to parse or interpret its contents, as the format may change without notice.
tool_result_max_bytes: optional number

Truncate each text item inside a tool result to at most this many bytes (cut on a code-point boundary). Pass -1 to request the server maximum. 0 is not a valid value.

default: 10000, maximum: 2147483647, minimum: -1
tool_use_input_max_bytes: optional number

Truncate each tool-use input to at most this many bytes (cut on a code-point boundary so the result is valid UTF-8). Pass -1 to request the server maximum. 0 is not a valid value.

default: 10000, maximum: 2147483647, minimum: -1
