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:

curl -X GET -v -u Administrator:password \
http://10.143.210.101:8091/pools/default/buckets/testBucket/scopes

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

{"uid":"0","scopes":[{"name":"_default","uid":"0","collections":[{"name":"_default","uid":"0"}]}]}
