# SEARCH.LISTINDEXES

> List search indexes in the database.

Use `SEARCH.LISTINDEXES` to list search indexes in the database.

`MATCH` filters index names with a glob-style pattern, while `LIMIT` and `OFFSET` page through the reply, which keeps the command usable on a database with many indexes. Only index names are returned; use [`SEARCH.DESCRIBE`](/redis/commands/search/search-describe) to see an index's schema and settings.

See [Listing Indexes](/redis/search/index-management#listing-indexes) for the feature guide.

## Syntax

```redis
SEARCH.LISTINDEXES [MATCH <pattern>] [LIMIT <count>] [OFFSET <offset>]
```

## Arguments

| Argument | Description | Default |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `MATCH` | Filter index names by a glob-style pattern, such as `product*`. | All indexes |
| `LIMIT` | Maximum number of indexes to return. `0` returns all indexes. | `0` (all indexes) |
| `OFFSET` | Number of indexes to skip for pagination. | `0` |

## Response

Returns one entry per index, sorted by index name. Each entry is a map containing the index `name` and its backing `type` (`HASH`, `JSON`, or `STRING`). With RESP2, each map is encoded as an array of alternating keys and values.

```text
[
  ["name", "productIdx", "type", "HASH"],
  ["name", "profileIdx", "type", "JSON"],
  ["name", "sessionIdx", "type", "STRING"]
]
```

## Examples

<Note>
  The high-level Search APIs do not currently expose `SEARCH.LISTINDEXES`. Use each client's generic command method for this command.
