# Get assistant conversation thread

> Returns the full message transcript for a single assistant conversation thread. The thread ID is available from the assistant conversations endpoint, or as the `threadId` query parameter appended to assistant link-mode deflection support URLs.

Authenticate with an admin API key.

## Usage

Use this endpoint to fetch the full message transcript of a single assistant conversation as JSON. The response includes the ordered list of user and assistant messages, each with an ID, role, content, and timestamp.

Common uses:

- Attach the conversation transcript to a support ticket when a user reaches out from the assistant.
- Reconstruct a specific conversation for review, quality assurance, or offline analysis.

## Getting a thread ID

You can obtain a `threadId` from either of the following sources:

- The `id` field of any row returned by [Get assistant conversations](/guides/api-analytics-assistant-conversations).
- The `threadId` query parameter that Mintlify appends to the support URL when the assistant deflects to your support platform using [link deflection](/guides/assistant-configure#deflect-to-a-support-link).

## Rate limits

This endpoint allows 100 requests per organization per hour. All analytics endpoints share this limit.
