Request

Set VOCAL_API to the base URL of your API and VOCAL_API_KEY to an API key with the prompts:read scope (Authentication and keys). Replace each placeholder, such as agt_... or <name>, with your own value.

curl "$VOCAL_API/v1/prompt-eval-suites/pes_..." \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $VOCAL_API_KEY"

const response = await fetch(`${process.env.VOCAL_API}/v1/prompt-eval-suites/pes_...`, {
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.VOCAL_API_KEY}`,
  },
});
console.log(response.status, await response.text());

import os

import requests

response = requests.get(
    f"{os.environ['VOCAL_API']}/v1/prompt-eval-suites/pes_...",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['VOCAL_API_KEY']}",
    },
)
print(response.status_code, response.text)

Fields of the `200` answer

The shape is PromptEvalSuite.

Field	Type	Required	Description
`agent_id`	AgentId	yes	The Agent whose versions the suite evaluates.
`archived_at`	Timestamp or null	yes	When `DELETE` archived the suite, or null. An archived suite takes no write and no run (409 `prompt_eval_suite_archived`); its scenarios and runs stay readable.
`calibration`	PromptEvalJudgeCalibration or null	no	When the suite's judge was last calibrated (1.63.0): the latest completed calibration, null before the first. Absent from an api before 1.63.0, which a reader treats as null.
`created_at`	Timestamp	yes
`description`	string or null	yes	For reviewers; never sent to a model.
`gate`	PromptEvalGate or null	no	The publish gate the suite defines (1.63.0): the expectation types and `must` items that must hold, with the floor and margin of the judged items, which an Agent applies once its owner names the suite. Null for none; absent from an api before 1.63.0, which a reader treats as null.
`id`	PromptEvalSuiteId	yes
`judge`	StageRef or null	yes	The model of the `llm` stage that reads each transcript of a simulated scenario with its rubric and returns a verdict per item, through a Vocal `task` template with structured output (section 9.1). Its results are advisory until it is checked against human labels, which 1.55.0 does not define and 1.63.0 does (`calibration`). Null until set; a run of a simulated scenario then refuses with `prompt_eval_judge_required`.
`name`	string	yes	A display name.
`object`	`"prompt_eval_suite"`	yes
`organization_id`	OrganizationId	yes
`repetitions`	integer	yes	How many times a run repeats each scenario, because model replies vary.
`revision`	integer	yes	Counts writes to the suite; returned as the ETag and required in If-Match.
`scenario_count`	integer	yes
`simulator`	StageRef or null	yes	The model of the `llm` stage that plays the simulated callers, through a Vocal `task` template (section 9.1). Null until set; a run of a simulated scenario then refuses with `prompt_eval_judge_required`.
`updated_at`	Timestamp	yes
