# Get Dust conversation messages

Automatically get Dust conversation messages on dust.tt. Read a Dust conversation's messages by conversation sId (from list_conversations or search_conversations), oldest first. Returns workspaceId, conversationId, title, a truncated flag, and messages: each with sId, role (user or agent), content, created, rank, plus author (the human's name/email on a user turn) and agent (the mentioned agent's id on an agent turn). truncated is true when limit stopped it before the first message, so the oldest turns are missing. An unknown conversation id fails loudly rather than returning an empty transcript. Requires being signed in to dust.tt.
