Returns a single mailbox by ID. A mailbox deleted within its 30-day restore window is still returned, with deleted_at set. Once the window closes it is permanently removed and returns 404.
Paramètres
mailbox_idstringMailbox identifier. Starts with mbx_.
Contenu de la réponse
idMailbox ID.
addressThe mailbox's email address. Immutable once created.
forwarding_addressAn address we generate on our receiving domain when the mailbox is created on a domain not set up for receiving with us. Forward mail for address here from your current email provider, and it lands in this mailbox. Replies still go out from address. Immutable. It stops receiving while the mailbox is deleted, works again with the same value after a restore, and keeps working if you later enable receiving on the domain. null on mailboxes created on the shared domain or on a domain already enabled for receiving.
display_nameDisplay name used as the sender name on mail from this mailbox. null when unset.
default_reply_toDefault Reply-To address stamped on mail sent from this mailbox. null when unset.
receive_policyWhich inbound mail the mailbox accepts:
open: Accepts everything not blocked by a rule.replies_only: Accepts only replies to messages this mailbox has sent. A reply must match a message the mailbox sent. Landing in an existing thread by itself does not count.allowlist: Accepts only senders matching an allow rule. Replies to prior outbound mail are always admitted unless blocked.drop: Stores nothing.
Possible values: open, replies_only, allowlist, drop
stateLifecycle state. active means the mailbox can send, receive, and expose conversations. suspended pauses sending, conversation reads, and events; inbound mail is retained with the blocked label until you resume it.
Possible values: active, suspended
channelThe channel this mailbox receives on. Always email.
Possible values: email
ownerThe principal that owns the mailbox. Always the workspace.
inbound_address_idThe underlying inbound address that receives this mailbox's mail.
retention_tierHow long message metadata, extracted text, and attachments are kept. Original bodies and inbound raw MIME are limited to 30 days on every tier.
Possible values: 30d, 90d, 1y
message_countNumber of retained messages across all threads.
thread_countNumber of retained threads.
size_bytesStored bytes across the mailbox's retained messages: subject, preview, extracted text, and attachment bytes. Message bodies and raw MIME expire after 30 days and do not count. Maintained with each message written or deleted, so the value is current; messages stored before the counter existed are not counted.
unread_thread_countNumber of threads with unread messages in this mailbox, excluding trash. null on create/update responses.
metadataYour own key/value data attached to the mailbox. Up to 2 KB. Keys starting with __bird are reserved.
local_part_generatedWhether we generated the local part of the address. false means a custom handle was chosen at creation. On the shared inbox.ai domain a custom handle counts against your plan's custom-handle allowance.
created_atWhen the mailbox was created.
updated_atWhen the mailbox was last updated.
deleted_atWhen the mailbox was deleted, or null if active. Deletion stops receiving; restore is available for 30 days unless permanent erasure has started.
nextWhat to do next with this mailbox. The response that creates it suggests subscribing to the mail it receives; other reads of one mailbox return an empty list, and lists omit it.

next.kindWhat you do about this step.
operation: call the operation named inoperation, then read again.external: act somewhere this API does not reach, then read again.wait: nothing is asked of you, so read again later.terminal: nothing you do resolves this, so stop retrying.
Tolerate a value you do not recognize: show the description and
offer no action.
Possible values (may grow over time): operation, external, wait, terminal
next.descriptionA short, human-readable label for the step, suitable for display.
next.operationThe operationId to call. Present only when kind is operation. The operation's own schema says how to call it; this says only which one, and what to address it with.
next.paramsThe parameters that address the operation, by name: {"sender_id": "…"} for an operation on /v1/sms/senders/{sender_id}/requirements. A parameter the operation takes in its query string is given the same way, so an operation addressed as ?subject_id= carries {"subject_id": "…"}. Every parameter the call needs is here, whether its value came from the thing you were acting on or is fixed for this step, so you can make the call from this object alone. Present only when kind is operation and the operation names a subject. A request body, when the operation takes one, is described by the operation's own schema and never appears here.
next.urlA URL to open. Present only when kind is external, and only when the step has one. An external step whose description says to go and do something with no URL to open is normal.
