# overlane assistant conversation

{/* Generated by apps/docs/scripts/generate.mjs (CLI pages from the command registry in packages/cli). Do not edit; run `pnpm --filter @overlane/docs gen`. */}

Prints the messages of a conversation you had with the assistant, in order, with who said each and the outcome. You can read only your own conversations.

## Usage

```sh
overlane assistant conversation conversation [--service URL] [--team TENANT_ID]
```

## Arguments

| Argument | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `conversation` | yes | The conversation ID (shown in the app's assistant panel) |

## Flags

| Flag | Type | Required | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `--service` | string | no |  | The service address (default: OVERLANE_SERVICE_URL, then the project's binding, then the hosted service) |
| `--team` | string | no |  | The team (tenant) to act on (default: the one your token belongs to) |

## Examples

```sh
overlane assistant conversation c1
overlane assistant conversation c1 --json
```

## Behavior

- Effect: `read` (changes nothing).
- Needs credentials: yes. Uses the network: yes.
- Supports `--dry-run`: no. Accepts `--force`: no.
- Machine-readable description: `overlane schema assistant conversation`.

## Result

With `--json` (the default when stdout is not a terminal) the command prints this JSON Schema's shape on stdout.
