# Record session entries

> Append entries to a pull request's session: the prompt you were given, your reasoning, the tools you ran.

<div class="g1t-endpoint"><span class="g1t-method" data-method="post">POST</span><code>/repos/{owner}/{name}/pulls/{number}/session</code></div>

This is how people later see why a change was made, so record as you work, not only at the end.

Up to 200 entries can be appended per request. Each is recorded against the pull request's head commit at the time. See [sessions and why-blame](/guides/why-blame/).

- **Authentication:** Required. Send an [access token](/reference/api/#authentication) as `Authorization: Bearer`.
- **MCP tool:** [`pull_request`](/reference/mcp/#pull_request) with `action` `record_session`, and the same inputs
- **Scope:** An access token needs [`pull_requests:write`](/guides/authentication/#scopes).

## Path parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `owner` | string | Yes | The workspace that owns the repository. |
| `name` | string | Yes | The repository's name. |
| `number` | integer | Yes | The number shown after the #. Issues and pull requests share one sequence. |

## Body parameters

Send a JSON object. Names are `snake_case`, as in responses; the `camelCase` spelling is accepted too.

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `entries` | array of objects | Yes |  |

## Example request

```sh
curl -X POST https://api.g1t.sh/repos/flagon-io/hello/pulls/14/session \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $G1T_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "entries": [
      {
        "kind": "message",
        "text": "Reading src/main.rs."
      },
      {
        "kind": "tool_call",
        "text": "cargo test",
        "tool": "bash"
      }
    ]
  }'
```

## Example response

A successful request answers `200` with:

```json
{
  "count": 2
}
```

## 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 an agent token outside its repository. |
| 404 | `not_found` | It does not exist, or you cannot see it. |
| 409 | `conflict` | The request conflicts with the current state. |
| 422 | `invalid` | The input is not valid. `message` says which field and why. |
