# `GET /v1/sessions/stream` — Observe the session list

Part of the [Bkper Managed Agent API](https://bkper.com/docs/api/managed-agent.md). Read its guide for authentication, conventions, and examples.

One owner-scoped session-list observation per client, independent of the selected session. SSE `snapshot` events replace the first list page (SessionList), newest created first. Creation, rename and archive are coalesced; each snapshot invalidates cached older pages, even when the first page is unchanged. Use cursor with GET /v1/sessions for older pages. Reconnect from a fresh snapshot; no replay cursor. Expires after five minutes; disconnect never cancels work.
