List record IDs

List the IDs of records in a single namespace of a serverless index. An optional prefix can be passed to limit the results to IDs with a common prefix.

Returns up to 100 IDs at a time by default in sorted order (bitwise "C" collation). If the limit parameter is set, list returns up to that number of IDs instead. Whenever there are additional IDs to return, the response includes pagination.next, a token you pass as paginationToken to get the next batch of IDs. When the response has no pagination, there are no more IDs to return.

For guidance and examples, see List record IDs.

Note: list is supported only for serverless indexes.
