# Response Types

Response types are the customer-facing classifications used to describe the
kind of response a customer source can create or manage, such as security or
medical. They show up throughout the Panic API wherever a callout, coverage
rule, or subscription is tied to a response category.

## What the endpoint returns

[List response types](/api-reference/response-types/list-response-types)
returns the response types available to the authenticated customer source as
`{message, responseTypes[]}` — each with an `id`, a `value` (e.g. `SECURITY`),
a description, and `enabledLocations` flags showing whether it applies to
fixed-location and/or personal-safety flows.

## Notes for integrators

* The response type `id` is what you pass as `responseTypeId` when
  [creating a callout](/overview/core-concepts/callout-lifecycle) and as the
  path parameter when
  [retrieving coverage](/overview/core-concepts/coverage).
* If a flow requires a response type ID, use the value returned by this endpoint
  rather than hard-coding response type IDs from examples.
