# Transmissions

Delivery logs for DigitalForms sent to Patients.

## List Transmissions

`GET /v1/transmissions`

Returns the email delivery log for allowlisted resources. At least one of `patient_id` or `resource_type` must be supplied. When both are supplied, a Transmission must match both filters. Currently `resource_type` accepts only `digital_form_response`. Omitting `resource_type` still returns only those allowlisted types.

**Required API scopes:** `transmissions.read`

## Parameters

- `patient_id` (query, `string`) - Filter by a Patient with an active connection to the Organization.
- `resource_type` (query, `string`) - The type of resource whose Transmissions should be returned. Currently only `digital_form_response` is supported.
- `limit` (query, `integer`) - The maximum number of items to return. Defaults to `25`; the maximum is `100`.
- `starting_after` (query, `string`) - Return items after this resource ID. You cannot use this with `cursor`.
- `cursor` (query, `string`) - The `next_cursor` value from the previous page. You cannot use this with `starting_after`.

## Response `200`

Paginated list of `Transmission` objects.

- `any`
