This API allows you get details of lists within an account. This API also allows you to search a particular list by list name and also sort the fetched response by name or date created.

It's a bulk API which which works with offset & limit parameters to fetch specific set of data.

GET

https://<your_api_key>:<your_api_token><subdomain>/v2/accounts/<your_sid>/lists?limit=<limit>&offset=<offset>

  • Replace <your_api_key> and <your_api_token> with the API key and token created by you.
  • Replace <your_sid> with your “Account sid”
  • Replace <subdomain> with the region of your account
    1. <subdomain> of Singapore cluster is @api.exotel.com
    2. <subdomain> of Mumbai cluster is @api.in.exotel.com

<your_api_key> , <your_api_token> and <your_sid> are available in the API settings page of your Exotel Dashboard

Request Query Parameters:

Parameter Name   Mandatory/Optional Value

offset

optional

This is the position in the dataset of a particular record. By specifying offset, you retrieve a subset of records starting with the offset value. Offset is zero-based i.e. the 10th record is at offset 9

limit

optional

number of records on single page default:20

name

optional

Search on lists name 

sort_by

optional

This indicates in what order the lists records are sorted in the API response. By default records are sorted by DateCreated in ascending order. However, you can override the same in following way for ascending order: Eg: date_created:asc or name:asc
