--- title: "Get session" method: GET path: "/zones/{zoneId}/sessions/{id}" tags: ["Sessions"] --- # Get session `GET /zones/{zoneId}/sessions/{id}` ## Request - Base URL: `https://docs.keycard.ai` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from) - URL: `https://docs.keycard.ai/zones/{zoneId}/sessions/{id}` - Auth: one of: - HTTP bearer - OAuth 2 - Client credentials - Token URL: `/service-account-token` Returns details of a specific session by session ID ## Path parameters - `zoneId` string, required - `id` string, required ## Response `200` An authenticated identity session. Sessions can be user sessions (representing end-user authentication) or application sessions (representing service-to-service authentication). User sessions support hierarchical relationships via parent_id, while application sessions are always standalone. - union - object: User session type-specific fields - `id` string, required: Session ID - `organization_id` string, required: Organization that owns this session - `zone_id` string, required: Zone this session belongs to - `created_at` string, date-time, required: Entity creation timestamp - `authenticated_at` string, date-time: Date when the session was authenticated - `updated_at` string, date-time, required: Entity update timestamp - `expires_at` string, date-time, required: Date when session expires - `session_data` object: Session claims data (ID token claims for users, application claims for applications) - `metadata` object, required: Session metadata - `name` string, required: Name of the initiating application or user agent - `status` 'active' | 'expired' | 'revoked' - `active` boolean: Whether the session is currently active (deprecated - use status instead) - `session_type` 'user', required - `user_id` string, required: User ID - `application_id` string: Application ID that initiated this session - `user_agent_id` string: User agent ID (browser/client) that initiated this session - `user` IamUser: An authenticated user entity - `id` string, required: Unique identifier of the user - `organization_id` string, required: Organization that owns this user - `zone_id` string, required: Zone this user belongs to - `identifier` string, required: Zone-scoped user identifier.

Disambiguates roles that share an identifier across owner types. - `scope` object, nullable, required: The resource this grant is scoped to, or null when the grant is unscoped (applies to the owning zone itself). - `type` string, required: The kind of resource this grant is scoped to (e.g. `zone`). - `id` string, required: The ID of the scoped resource. - `source` 'user' | 'group', required: The principal that holds this grant: `user` when assigned directly to the user, or `group` when inherited through group membership. - `group_id` string: ID of the group this grant is inherited from.

When true the group is directory-owned and its membership is read-only; when false it is managed in Keycard. - `external_issuer` string, nullable, required: Issuer of the external directory the group was synced from. `null` for groups managed in Keycard. Read-only: set by external sync, never by the caller. - `credentials` IamUserCredential[]: Authentication credentials for this user, each carrying its identity provider for federation credentials.
