How do I list messages in a Unipile conversation?
Short answer: You can list messages in Unipile by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Unipile List Messages action to a workflow, map its 3 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.
Inputs
The fields this action accepts.
Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
Chat ID chat_id | string | Required | The conversation/chat ID to fetch messages from |
Limit limit | string | Optional | Maximum number of messages to return |
Cursor cursor | string | Optional | Pagination cursor from previous response |
Sample request
{"chat_id": "e.g. chat_abc123","limit": "10","cursor": "{{trigger.cursor}}"}
Returns
{"items": [{"id": "msg_abc123","text": "Hi, are you available for a call?","object": "Message","chat_id": "chat_abc123","is_sender": false,"sender_id": "user_001","timestamp": "2025-03-15T10:00:00Z"},{"id": "msg_abc124","text": "Sure, let me know the time.","object": "Message","chat_id": "chat_abc123","is_sender": true,"sender_id": "me","timestamp": "2025-03-15T10:05:00Z"}],"cursor": "next_cursor_token","object": "list"}
Use these fields in downstream nodes for routing, logging, or error handling.

FAQ
Questions about List Messages.
What does the List Messages action do in Unipile?
Lists messages in a specific Unipile conversation across the connected account types. Combined with List Conversations, gives you a cross-platform message history view.
What inputs does List Messages require?
Required: Chat ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Unipile returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Unipile returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does List Messages support batch operations?
Run List Messages inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Unipile's rate limits.
