# Fetch an imported conversation

`GET /ext/v2/imported-conversations/{imported_conversation_id}/`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://connect.vetcove.com`
- URL: `https://connect.vetcove.com/ext/v2/imported-conversations/{imported_conversation_id}/`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Retrieves an imported conversation by its ID.

An **imported conversation** is a read-only transcript of a completed conversation (typically SMS) written back into Vetcove from a partner communications platform.

Imported conversations do not appear in the Vetcove inbox. They surface on the patient timeline so clinic staff can read prior client outreach alongside the rest of the patient record. When a conversation is submitted without a patient, it is attached to every active patient of the clinic client so that it appears on each of their timelines.

## Path parameters

- `imported_conversation_id` integer, required
