}List drafts in a matter
Every draft in this matter, newest edit first, without their bodies.
Two status fields, and they are not the same thing. status is where the
DOCUMENT is in its lifecycle and you set it. generationStatus is where the
JOB that produced it got to, and only the pipeline sets it. Fetch a draft by
id to get its body.
Pass state=trashed to list what has been deleted and is still restorable.
Deleted drafts are invisible to every other read on this API, so this is the
only way to find one whose id you no longer hold.

}Authorizations
Workspace credential issued from the automation console at /automation. Send it as Authorization: Bearer vq_ws_.... This is NOT a Data API key: a vq_key_ credential is refused here and names the other product in the error.
Path Parameters
mat_ identifier of the matter to work inside. Everything in this API hangs off a matter, and the matter in the path is what the authorization boundary is checked against. Take it from GET /v1/matters.
Query Parameters
How many rows to return, 1 to 200. Defaults to 50.
1 <= x <= 200How many rows to skip before returning any. Combine with limit to page: offset=0, then offset=50, and so on. Offsets are positional, not stable, so a set that changes while you page can show a row twice or not at all.
x >= 0Which drafts to list: active (the default) or trashed. A trashed draft is restorable for 30 days and is invisible to every other read on this API.
active, trashed Was this page helpful?
