Returns a cursor-paginated version history, newest first. Each entry is shallow and names its variables and languages. Read a version item or one of its languages to retrieve text. A built-in template exposes its current catalogue content as one synthetic published version.
Parameter
template_ref
string
The template's ID (smt_…) or slug.
Abfrageparameter
sort
string
Field to sort by.
Possible values: created_at
order
string
Sort direction. Defaults to desc, which sorts from newest to oldest or largest to smallest, depending on the selected sort field.
Possible values: asc, desc
limit
integer
Maximum number of items to return per page.
starting_after
string
Cursor from the next_cursor field of a previous list response. Returns items immediately after the cursor position in the current sort order.
ending_before
string
Cursor from the prev_cursor or refresh_cursor field of a previous list response. Returns items immediately before the cursor position in the current sort order. prev_cursor returns the preceding page. refresh_cursor anchors at the first row of that response, which on a newest-first sort is how to fetch the items that have appeared since.
Antwort-Payload
data
array of object
erforderlich
One page of the template's versions, newest first.
Untergeordnete Attribute anzeigen
data.id
string
erforderlich
Template version ID.
data.template_id
string
erforderlich
The template this version belongs to.
data.version_number
nullable integer
erforderlich
Sequential publication number. Null for the draft; a built-in template reports 1.
data.status
string
erforderlich
Whether the version is the editable draft or published. Published workspace versions are immutable and remain published after a later version goes live. A built-in template's synthetic published version projects the current catalogue entry.
Possible values: draft, published
data.revision
integer
erforderlich
The version's revision counter.
data.variables
array of object
erforderlich
Variables inferred from the version's text and shared by each language.
Untergeordnete Attribute anzeigen
data.variables.key
string
erforderlich
The key this slot is filled by. On email and SMS it is the key you set in the send's parameters object. On WhatsApp it is the name you repeat on the matching parameter inside components, or, for a template whose placeholders are positional, the position itself as 1, 2 and so on.
data.variables.type
string
erforderlich
The value type this slot accepts. Built-in SMS templates use typed slots (code, amount and the rest), each of which rejects a value that does not match its constraint. Email, WhatsApp and workspace SMS templates use text. Workspace SMS parameters must be scalar values. Open enum: treat an unrecognized value as a future type rather than an error.
Possible values (may grow over time): code, ttl, count, ref, date, date_time, amount, currency, text
data.variables.required
boolean
erforderlich
Whether the send must supply this variable. Omitting a required value returns 422 on email, SMS, and WhatsApp sends.
data.variables.constraint
string
erforderlich
A plain-language description of what values this variable accepts.
data.variables.sensitive
boolean
Whether this slot's value is redacted from stored message content. A placeholder replaces the sensitive value in message history; transport queues can still carry the text needed for delivery.
data.default_language
string
erforderlich
The language this version treats as its default.
data.available_languages
array of string
erforderlich
Languages this version contains, without their text.
data.created_at
nullable string
erforderlich
When the version was created. Null for a built-in template's synthetic version.
data.published_at
nullable string
erforderlich
When the version was published. Null for the draft and for a built-in template's synthetic version.
next_cursor
nullable string
erforderlich
Cursor for the next page. Pass back as starting_after to advance forward. null when no next page exists.
prev_cursor
nullable string
erforderlich
Cursor for the previous page. Pass back as ending_before to step backward. null when no previous page exists.
refresh_cursor
nullable string
erforderlich
Refresh anchor, the first row of this response. Pass back as ending_before to fetch what precedes it in the current sort order. On a newest-first sort those are the items that have appeared since; on any other sort they are the items that sort earlier, so refreshing such a list means re-fetching it instead. Non-null whenever data is non-empty; null only on an empty page. Distinct from prev_cursor.
