# List sequences

> Returns every sequence on the account. A sequence is a self-contained set of automated emails — subscribers join, then receive each email in order, governed by per-email `delay_value` / `delay_unit` and the sequence's overall `send_days`, `send_hour`, and `time_zone` schedule.

Each entry carries the schedule defaults plus three behavioural toggles: `active` (whether the sequence is delivering), `repeat` (whether subscribers can re-enter), and `hold` (whether subscribers stay active after receiving every published email — an evergreen pattern). See [Create a sequence](/api-reference/sequences/create-a-sequence) for the full sequence model.

Once you have a sequence's `id`, [List sequence emails](/api-reference/sequence-emails/list-sequence-emails) returns the individual emails inside it.

For end-user context on how creators build sequences, see the help articles on [creating and sending a sequence](https://help.kit.com/en/articles/2502629-creating-and-sending-a-sequence-in-kit) and [evergreen content](https://help.kit.com/en/articles/2502575-what-is-evergreen-content).

        Returns every sequence on the account. A sequence is a self-contained
        set of automated emails — subscribers join, then receive each email in
        order, governed by per-email `delay_value` / `delay_unit` and the
        sequence's overall `send_days`, `send_hour`, and `time_zone` schedule.


        Each entry carries the schedule defaults plus three behavioural toggles:

        subscribers can re-enter), and `hold` (whether subscribers stay active
        after receiving every published email — an evergreen pattern). See
        [Create a sequence](/api-reference/sequences/create-a-sequence) for the
        full sequence model.


        Once you have a sequence's `id`, [List sequence
        emails](/api-reference/sequence-emails/list-sequence-emails) returns the
        individual emails inside it.
