auth.getSession
Poll a credential connect session by its account id, a pure status read that makes no external call and does not itself complete the connection.
Prerequisites
- A Curviate API key, passed as
apiKeywhen you construct the client. Quickstart shows how to create one.
Signature
getSession(sessionId: string): Promise<AuthGetSessionResult>Example
import { Curviate } from "@curviate/sdk";
const curviate = new Curviate({
apiKey: "cvt_live_...",
baseUrl: "https://api.curviate.com",
});
const result = await curviate.auth.getSession("YOUR_SESSION_ID");
console.log(result.session_id);Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
sessionId | string | Yes | The credential account id (acc_...) returned by auth/intent or a checkpoint response, the handle for the in-progress connect. |
Returns
Resolves to AuthGetSessionResult. Top-level fields: object, session_id, status, account_id, challenge_type, expires_at, safety_warning.
Error codes
| Code | What it means, and what to do |
|---|---|
UNAUTHORIZED | The API key is missing, malformed, or revoked. Check the key you passed to the client. |
INVALID_REQUEST | A parameter failed validation. The message names the offending field; fix the request rather than retrying it. |
RATE_LIMIT_ACCOUNT | This account's own quota is exhausted. Wait for the window in the Retry-After header, then retry. |
RATE_LIMIT_TENANT | The tenant-wide quota is exhausted across all accounts. Slow the whole workload, not just this call. |
PLATFORM_RATE_LIMIT | LinkedIn is throttling this account. Back off well beyond the hinted delay; sustained pressure risks the account. |
PLATFORM_ERROR | An upstream failure, usually transient: retry once with backoff before treating it as a real error. Check the response first, though. When it carries retry_likely_to_succeed: false and retry_hint: {kind: "never"}, retrying cannot help and backing off only delays the real answer. |
INTERNAL | An unexpected server error. Retry once; if it persists, it is ours, not yours. |
RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND | The id in the path does not exist, or is not visible to this account. Re-read it from the list endpoint that produced it. |
Every code above is a stable CurviateError.code you can branch on. The full list, the response envelope, and retry semantics are in the Error codes reference.
