# List comments through a share link

`GET /embed/media/{mediaId}/comments`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.speakai.co/v1`
- URL: `https://api.speakai.co/v1/embed/media/{mediaId}/comments`
- Auth: none required

Read every comment thread on a media file through a dashboard share link. Allowed while the dashboard's `comments.isEnabled` is true. `resolvedBy` and `mediaLabelId` are left out. No API key or access token: the share link `token` is the only credential. The media must be in one of the dashboard's folders. Every refusal returns the same `404 {"message": "Not found."}`, so a link holder cannot tell which check failed. A media or folder embed token also works here while the embed's `meta.isComments` is true, for the embed's own media or media in its folders; an embed shows every active label and can never write. Reads are limited to 120 requests a minute per IP address.

## Path parameters

- `mediaId` string, required

## Query parameters

- `token` string, required
