Request

HTTP request

GET https://storage.googleapis.com/storage/v1/b

In addition to standard query parameters, the following query parameters apply to this method.

To see an example of how to include query parameters in a request, see the JSON API Overview page.

Parameters

Parameter name	Value	Description
Required query parameters
`project`	`string`	A valid API project identifier.
Optional query parameters
`maxResults`	`unsigned integer`	Maximum number of buckets to return in a single response. The service may return fewer results than `maxResults` so the presence of `nextPageToken` should always be checked. The service limits to: 200 items if `projection=full`. 1,000 items if `projection=noAcl`.
`pageToken`	`string`	A previously-returned page token representing part of the larger set of results to view. The `pageToken` is an encoded field containing the name of the last item (bucket) in the returned list. In a subsequent request using the `pageToken`, items that come after the `pageToken` are shown (up to `maxResults`). If you start a listing and then create a new bucket before using a `pageToken` to continue listing, you will not see the new bucket in subsequent listing results if it is in part of the bucket namespace already listed.
`prefix`	`string`	Filter results to buckets whose names begin with this prefix.
`projection`	`string`	Set of properties to return. Defaults to `noAcl`. Acceptable values are: `full`: Include all properties. `noAcl`: Omit `owner`, `acl`, and `defaultObjectAcl` properties.

Request body

Do not supply a request body with this method.

Response

If successful, this method returns a response body with the following structure:

{
  "kind": "storage#buckets",
  "nextPageToken": string,
  "items": [
    buckets Resource
  ]
}

Property name	Value	Description
`kind`	`string`	The kind of item this is. For lists of buckets, this is always `"storage#buckets"`.
`nextPageToken`	`string`	The continuation token. Provide this value as the `pageToken` of a subsequent request in order to return the next page of results. Note that the next page may be empty. If this is the last page of results, then no continuation token is returned. The presence of this parameter in the response should always be checked to ensure a complete listing of all the results. The `nextPageToken` is the name of the last bucket in the returned list. In a subsequent list request using the `pageToken`, items that come after the token are shown (up to `maxResults`).
`items[]`	`list`	The list of buckets.
