Summary

Retrieve recent messages from a specified Backchannel channel, supporting pagination with cursors and limiting the number of messages per page.

Inputs

  • Channel (required) — The name or ID of the Backchannel channel to subscribe to.
  • Since Cursor — An optional cursor (next_cursor) from a previous subscription call to paginate forward through messages; leave empty to fetch the newest messages.
  • Limit — The maximum number of messages to return in one page; defaults to 50.

Output shape

a single JSON object representing a page of messages including data and a next_cursor for pagination

The output includes paginated message data from the selected channel. Provide the next_cursor from the output to the Since Cursor input to fetch subsequent pages. Errors halt execution unless 'Continue On Fail' is enabled, in which case error information is returned in the JSON output.
