# List Room API | ||
|
||
The List Room admin API allows server admins to get a list of rooms on their | ||
server. There are various parameters available that allow for filtering and | ||
sorting the returned list. This API supports pagination. | ||
|
||
## Parameters | ||
|
||
The following query parameters are available: | ||
|
||
* `from` - Offset in the returned list. Defaults to `0`. | ||
* `limit` - Maximum amount of rooms to return. Defaults to `100`. | ||
* `order_by` - The method in which to sort the returned list of rooms. Valid values are: | ||
- `alphabetical` - Rooms are ordered alphabetically by room name. This is the default. | ||
- `size` - Rooms are ordered by the number of members. Largest to smallest. | ||
* `dir` - Direction of room order. Either `f` for forwards or `b` for backwards. Setting | ||
this value to `b` will reverse the above sort order. Defaults to `f`. | ||
* `search_term` - Filter rooms by their room name. Search term can be contained in any | ||
part of the room name. Defaults to no filtering. | ||
|
||
The following fields are possible in the JSON response body: | ||
|
||
* `rooms` - An array of objects, each containing information about a room. | ||
- Room objects contain the following fields: | ||
- `room_id` - The ID of the room. | ||
- `name` - The name of the room. | ||
- `canonical_alias` - The canonical (main) alias address of the room. | ||
- `joined_members` - How many users are currently in the room. | ||
* `offset` - The current pagination offset in rooms. This parameter should be | ||
used instead of `next_token` for room offset as `next_token` is | ||
not intended to be parsed. | ||
* `total_rooms` - The total number of rooms this query can return. Using this | ||
and `offset`, you have enough information to know the current | ||
progression through the list. | ||
* `next_batch` - If this field is present, we know that there are potentially | ||
more rooms on the server that did not all fit into this response. | ||
We can use `next_batch` to get the "next page" of results. To do | ||
so, simply repeat your request, setting the `from` parameter to | ||
the value of `next_batch`. | ||
* `prev_batch` - If this field is present, it is possible to paginate backwards. | ||
Use `prev_batch` for the `from` value in the next request to | ||
get the "previous page" of results. | ||
|
||
## Usage | ||
|
||
A standard request with no filtering: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
GET /_synapse/admin/rooms | ||
{} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Response: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
{ | ||
"rooms": [ | ||
{ | ||
"room_id": "!OGEhHVWSdvArJzumhm:matrix.org", | ||
"name": "Matrix HQ", | ||
"canonical_alias": "#matrix:matrix.org", | ||
"joined_members": 8326 | ||
}, | ||
... (8 hidden items) ... | ||
{ | ||
"room_id": "!xYvNcQPhnkrdUmYczI:matrix.org", | ||
"name": "This Week In Matrix (TWIM)", | ||
"canonical_alias": "#twim:matrix.org", | ||
"joined_members": 314 | ||
} | ||
], | ||
"offset": 0, | ||
"total_rooms": 10 | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Filtering by room name: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
GET /_synapse/admin/rooms?search_term=TWIM | ||
{} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Response: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
{ | ||
"rooms": [ | ||
{ | ||
"room_id": "!xYvNcQPhnkrdUmYczI:matrix.org", | ||
"name": "This Week In Matrix (TWIM)", | ||
"canonical_alias": "#twim:matrix.org", | ||
"joined_members": 314 | ||
} | ||
], | ||
"offset": 0, | ||
"total_rooms": 1 | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Paginating through a list of rooms: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
GET /_synapse/admin/rooms?order_by=size | ||
{} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Response: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
{ | ||
"rooms": [ | ||
{ | ||
"room_id": "!OGEhHVWSdvArJzumhm:matrix.org", | ||
"name": "Matrix HQ", | ||
"canonical_alias": "#matrix:matrix.org", | ||
"joined_members": 8326 | ||
}, | ||
... (98 hidden items) ... | ||
{ | ||
"room_id": "!xYvNcQPhnkrdUmYczI:matrix.org", | ||
"name": "This Week In Matrix (TWIM)", | ||
"canonical_alias": "#twim:matrix.org", | ||
"joined_members": 314 | ||
} | ||
], | ||
"offset": 0, | ||
"total_rooms": 150 | ||
"next_token": 100 | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The presence of the `next_token` parameter tells us that there are more rooms | ||
than returned in this request, and we need to make another request to get them. | ||
To get the next batch of room results, we repeat our request, setting the `from` | ||
parameter to the value of `next_token`. | ||
|
||
``` | ||
GET /_synapse/admin/rooms?order_by=size&from=100 | ||
{} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Response: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
{ | ||
"rooms": [ | ||
{ | ||
"room_id": "!mscvqgqpHYjBGDxNym:matrix.org", | ||
"name": "Music Theory", | ||
"canonical_alias": "#musictheory:matrix.org", | ||
"joined_members": 127 | ||
}, | ||
... (48 hidden items) ... | ||
{ | ||
"room_id": "!twcBhHVdZlQWuuxBhN:termina.org.uk", | ||
"name": "weechat-matrix", | ||
"canonical_alias": "#weechat-matrix:termina.org.uk", | ||
"joined_members": 137 | ||
} | ||
], | ||
"offset": 100, | ||
"prev_batch": 0, | ||
"total_rooms": 150 | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Once the `next_token` parameter is no longer present, we know we've reached the | ||
end of the list. |
