## OpenAPI

````yaml openapi.json get /accounts/{account_id}/emails/{email_id}
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Roulette API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >
    The Roulette API provides programmatic access to manage your VC deal flow,

    companies, contacts, and related data.


    ## Authentication


    All API requests require authentication using a Bearer token. Include your
    API key

    in the `Authorization` header:


    ```

    Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

    ```


    You can generate API keys from your account settings in the Roulette
    dashboard.


    ## Rate Limiting


    API requests are rate limited to ensure fair usage. Current limits:

    - 1000 requests per minute per API key

    - 100 requests per second per API key


    Rate limit headers are included in all responses:

    - `X-RateLimit-Limit`: Maximum requests per window

    - `X-RateLimit-Remaining`: Requests remaining in current window

    - `X-RateLimit-Reset`: Unix timestamp when the window resets


    ## Pagination


    List endpoints support cursor-based pagination using the following query
    parameters:

    - `page`: Page number (default: 1)

    - `limit`: Items per page (default: 25, max: 100)


    Paginated responses include pagination metadata:

    ```json

    {
      "data": [...],
      "pagination": {
        "page": 1,
        "limit": 25,
        "has_next": true,
        "has_prev": false
      }
    }

    ```


    **Note**: For performance reasons, total counts (`total`, `total_pages`) are
    not included.

    Use `has_next` and `has_prev` to determine if more pages exist.


    ## Errors


    The API uses standard HTTP status codes and returns errors in a consistent
    format:


    ```json

    {
      "success": false,
      "error": "Human readable error message",
      "data": null
    }

    ```


    Common status codes:

    - `400` Bad Request - Invalid parameters or request body

    - `401` Unauthorized - Missing or invalid API key

    - `403` Forbidden - Valid API key but insufficient permissions

    - `404` Not Found - Resource not found

    - `429` Too Many Requests - Rate limit exceeded

    - `500` Internal Server Error - Server-side error
