# List sound-effect collections

`GET /v0/sound-effects/collections`

Returns the sound-effect collections active for your application.

Sound-effect collections are managed via the developer portal: an admin imports an EMS
playlist into a collection, and end users see only Active collections through this endpoint.

Every application has access to every sound effect, so there is no per-tier cap and no
paid/free distinction. Up to 20 sound effects per collection are included by default;
pass `excludeField=soundEffects` to omit them, or paginate the full set via
`/sound-effects/collections/{collectionId}`.

## Query parameters

- `excludeField` 'soundEffects'
- `limit` integer
- `offset` integer

## Response `200`
