# List all licenses

`GET /licenses/`

A paginated list of licenses. The returned licenses are sorted by their name.
#### Returns
Returns a JSON object containing `data` and `links` keys.
The `data` key contains an array of 10 licenses. Each resource in the array is a separate license object and contains the full representation of the license, meaning additional requests to a license's detail view are not necessary.

The `links` key contains a dictionary of links that can be used for [pagination](#tag/Pagination).

This request should never return an error.
#### Filtering
You can optionally request that the response only include licenses that match your filters by utilizing the `filter` query parameter, e.g. [https://api.osf.io/v2/licenses/?filter[name]=apache](https://api.osf.io/v2/licenses/?filter[name]=apache).

Licenses may be filtered by their `id`, and `name`.

## Response `200`

OK
