# Fetch department list.

`GET /department/fetch`

This endpoint enables you to retrieve a list of departments. Departments in geoCapture are utilized to assign an
employee to their respective department for efficient management. An example of this could be allocating a
standardized time model for all employees within a specific department. Additionally, departments are utilized in
the approval center. In a department, you can set up inspectors for different types of approval requests,
including absences, sickness, allowances, and stamp requests. This endpoint displays only the department's `id`,
`name`, and its parent department's name. If you wish to modify any other settings, you must do so within
geoCapture.
