> Returns sessions created via the V1 API, scoped to the authenticated
user's organization. Sessions created in the web app are not included.

single response.

info:
  title: Traversal Sessions API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >
    The V1 Sessions API lets you launch investigations, send follow-up
    questions,

    and retrieve results programmatically. Sessions are the same investigation

    primitive that powers the Traversal web application.


    All endpoints require a Bearer token. The authenticated user must have at

    least the `MEMBER` role within the organization, and the V1 API must be

    enabled for that organization — otherwise endpoints return `403 Forbidden`.
