Quickstart

Go from issuing a PAT to retrieving a recent meeting with dialogs and insights.

Prepare

  • A Callabo account
  • A workspace that allows PAT access
  • A terminal with cURL

Issue a PAT

Callabo REST API accepts a personal PAT as a Bearer token.

Open PAT settings

Authorization header

Add this header to every request.

Authorization: Bearer <PAT>

Steps

  1. 1

    Issue a PAT

    Choose a descriptive name and expiration in personal settings, then copy the token.

  2. 2

    Store it in an environment variable

    Set CALLABO_PAT without committing it or leaving it in shell history.

  3. 3

    Find your workspace slug

    Use the request below to list workspaces you can access. The list can include a workspace where PAT access is disabled.

  4. 4

    Find a recent record

    Use the first item from the records list and note its id.

  5. 5

    Include dialogs and insights

    Add include=dialogs,insights to the record detail request.

List your workspaces

curl --request GET \
  --url "https://api.callabo.ai/v2/workspaces?status=created&limit=20" \
  --header "Accept: application/json" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $CALLABO_PAT"

Find a recent record

curl --request GET \
  --url "https://api.callabo.ai/v2/workspaces/your-workspace/records?order=rec_date&limit=20" \
  --header "Accept: application/json" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $CALLABO_PAT"

Next request

Use a returned slug and a record id to call /v2/workspaces/{slug}/records/{record_id}?include=dialogs,insights. A returned slug alone does not prove that workspace-scoped API calls are available to the PAT.

If something fails

  • 401: Check for a missing, expired, or mistyped PAT. Also check whether PAT access is disabled for the target workspace.
  • 403: After authentication, check the current role's permission for the resource.
  • 404: Check slug, record_id, and the current user's access.

Use tokens safely

  • Never paste tokens into Git repositories, logs, chat, or documents.
  • Use environment variables or an approved secret manager.
  • Revoke a PAT immediately and issue a new one if exposure is suspected.
