# List a work item's artifacts

> The live artifacts of one work item, oldest first: every artifact anchored to a pull request declared onto the item, and every artifact emitted from a session linked to it. An artifact a later one replaced is left out. Each carries its kind, caption, the criterion it is bound to, its pull request, and `url`, the artifact's page on the dashboard. `workItemId` is the item's id or its number in this factory. An item holding more artifacts than one read returns is answered from its oldest ones, and `pagination.truncated` is true.

    The OuterLayer Gateway API lets you ingest coding-agent sessions and record
    evidence of work programmatically.


    Most teams reach it through the `outerlayer` CLI, which calls it for them.

    Call it directly to build your own integration or to automate what the
    dashboard does.


    Versioning: every endpoint is prefixed with `/v1/`. Breaking changes ship
    under a new version prefix (`/v2/`, etc.) with a 90-day-minimum deprecation
    window; anything additive lands on the current prefix.


    Vocabulary: the dashboard calls this API's `app` a **factory** — the unit
    that owns a set of repositories, the agent sessions worked on them, and the
    evidence they produce. They are the same entity. The API keeps `app` in its
    paths, headers, and field names because those are a published contract; only
    the product surface was renamed.
