# `bird voice calls list`

## Usage

```bash
bird voice calls list [flags]
```

## Description

List the workspace's calls, newest first by the initial leg's start. A call groups its initial leg and any legs added by forwarding or dialing, and parties lists who took part. Use `search` for a fragment of a call ID or phone number, and `has_recording`/`has_transcript` to find calls that produced that content. Filters apply after reading, so a narrow search over a long history can time out; this list has no time-range filter, so use `bird voice legs list` with `started_after`/`started_before` to find calls in a window, then its `call_id`. A call placed with `bird voice calls create` appears only after its initial leg registers. Use `bird voice calls get` for one call and `bird voice legs list` with `call_id` for its legs.

Returns a paginated JSON envelope; narrow with the filters below and page with --limit and --starting-after.

## Examples

```bash
bird voice calls list
bird voice calls list | jq -r '.data[].id'
bird voice calls list --limit 50 --starting-after <cursor>
```

| `--ending-before`  | 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. |
| `--limit <n>`      | Maximum number of items to return per page. Allowed range: 1 to 100.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
| `--starting-after` | Cursor from the next\_cursor field of a previous list response. Returns items immediately after the cursor position in the current sort order.                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
