Listing Scopes and Collections

Scopes and collections can be listed, by means of the REST API.

Description

Scopes and collections are listed by means of the GET /pools/default/buckets/<bucket_name>/scopes/ HTTP method and URI.

HTTP Method and URI

GET /pools/default/buckets/<bucket_name>/scopes/

Syntax

The curl syntax is as follows:

curl -X GET -v
  http://<hostname-or-ip>:8091/pools/default/buckets/<bucket_name>/scopes
  -u <username>:<password>

The <bucket-name> path-parameter specifies the name of the bucket whose defined collections are to be listed.

Responses

Success returns 200 OK. Failure to authenticate gives 401 Unauthorized. A malformed URI fails with 404 Object Not Found.

Examples

The following example lists the collections in a bucket named testBucket, making use of the tool jq, to format output:

curl -X GET -v -u Administrator:password \
http://10.145.250.101:8091/pools/default/buckets/testBucket/scopes | jq '.'

If successful, the call returns 200 OK, and an object listing scopes and collections. For example:

{
  "uid": "3",
  "scopes": [
    {
      "name": "_default",
      "uid": "0",
      "collections": [
        {
          "name": "MySecondCollection",
          "uid": "b",
          "maxTTL": 0,
          "history": false
        },
        {
          "name": "MyFirstCollection",
          "uid": "a",
          "maxTTL": 0,
          "history": false
        },
        {
          "name": "_default",
          "uid": "0",
          "history": false
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "_system",
      "uid": "8",
      "collections": [
        {
          "name": "_query",
          "uid": "9",
          "maxTTL": 0,
          "history": false
        },
        {
          "name": "_mobile",
          "uid": "8",
          "maxTTL": 0,
          "history": false
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
