# List sessions

> A repository's sessions, most recently heard from first, up to 100: state active (heard from in the last 15 minutes), idle or ended; issue or pull for those on one, attached or tied to it any other way; path for those that touched a file (or any under a folder ending in /).

<div class="g1t-endpoint"><span class="g1t-method" data-method="get">GET</span><code>/repos/{owner}/{name}/sessions</code></div>

Subagents are left out unless `subagents` is true, which lists each tree whole. Each says how many `subagents` it started. Anyone who can read the repository may.

- **Authentication:** Optional. Public data can be read without a token; send one to see what is private.
- **MCP tool:** [`session`](/reference/mcp/#session) with `action` `list`, and the same inputs
- **Scope:** An access token needs [`pull_requests:read`](/guides/authentication/#scopes).

## Errors

A failed request answers with one of these statuses and a body like `{"error": {"code": "not_found", "message": "Repository not found."}}`. See [errors](/reference/api/#errors).

| Status | Code | When |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 401 | `unauthenticated` | A token is required, or the one sent is not valid. |
| 403 | `forbidden` | The token is valid but not allowed to do this, such as a member-only change, or a token without the scope it needs. |
| 404 | `not_found` | It does not exist, or you cannot see it. |
| 422 | `invalid` | The input is not valid. `message` says which field and why. |
