# Get list of datasets

`GET /v2/datasets`

Lists all of a user's datasets.

The response is a JSON array of objects,
where each object contains basic information about one dataset.

By default, the objects are sorted by the `createdAt` field in ascending
order, therefore you can use pagination to incrementally fetch all datasets while new
ones are still being created. To sort them in descending order, use `desc=1`
parameter. The endpoint supports pagination using `limit` and `offset`
parameters and it will not return more than 1000 array elements.

## Query parameters

- `offset` number, double
- `limit` number, double
- `desc` boolean
- `unnamed` boolean
- `ownership` 'ownedByMe' | 'sharedWithMe'
