List recent transcriptions

Return one newest-first window of 1 to 100 jobs for history, recovery, or dashboards. The current v1 endpoint has no cursor or pagination token and omits completed transcript bodies; fetch one job when you need its text and segments.

Errors

API errors return a machine-readable code and message.

Status	Code	Meaning
401	`missing_api_key`	No bearer key was supplied.
401	`invalid_api_key`	The bearer key is malformed, unknown, or revoked.
400	`invalid_limit`	limit is not an integer between 1 and 100.

{
  "error": {
    "code": "invalid_limit",
    "message": "limit must be between 1 and 100."
  }
}

Implementation notes

The response contains only the newest requested jobs; v1 does not return a cursor or pagination token for older results.
