ListCompartments

GET {{baseUrl}}/compartments/?compartmentId={{tenancy_ocid}}&limit=693&accessLevel=ANY&compartmentIdInSubtree=true&sortBy=NAME&sortOrder=ASC&lifecycleState=ACTIVE

Lists the compartments in a specified compartment. The members of the list returned depends on the values set for several parameters.

With the exception of the tenancy (root compartment), the ListCompartments operation returns only the first-level child compartments in the parent compartment specified in compartmentId. The list does not include any subcompartments of the child compartments (grandchildren).

The parameter accessLevel specifies whether to return only those compartments for which the requestor has INSPECT permissions on at least one resource directly or indirectly (the resource can be in a subcompartment).

The parameter compartmentIdInSubtree applies only when you perform ListCompartments on the tenancy (root compartment). When set to true, the entire hierarchy of compartments can be returned. To get a full list of all compartments and subcompartments in the tenancy (root compartment), set the parameter compartmentIdInSubtree to true and accessLevel to ANY.

See Where to Get the Tenancy's OCID and User's OCID.

Request Params

KeyDatatypeRequiredDescription
compartmentIdstring(Required) The OCID of the compartment (remember that the tenancy is simply the root compartment).
pagestringThe value of the opc-next-page response header from the previous "List" call.
limitnumberThe maximum number of items to return in a paginated "List" call.
accessLevelstringValid values are ANY and ACCESSIBLE. Default is ANY.
Setting this to ACCESSIBLE returns only those compartments for which the
user has INSPECT permissions directly or indirectly (permissions can be on a
resource in a subcompartment). For the compartments on which the user indirectly has
INSPECT permissions, a restricted set of fields is returned.

When set to ANY permissions are not checked. | | compartmentIdInSubtree | boolean | | Default is false. Can only be set to true when performing ListCompartments on the tenancy (root compartment). When set to true, the hierarchy of compartments is traversed and all compartments and subcompartments in the tenancy are returned depending on the the setting of accessLevel. | | name | string | | A filter to only return resources that match the given name exactly. | | sortBy | string | | The field to sort by. You can provide one sort order (sortOrder). Default order for TIMECREATED is descending. Default order for NAME is ascending. The NAME sort order is case sensitive.

Note: In general, some "List" operations (for example, ListInstances) let you optionally filter by Availability Domain if the scope of the resource type is within a single Availability Domain. If you call one of these "List" operations without specifying an Availability Domain, the resources are grouped by Availability Domain, then sorted. | | sortOrder | string | | The sort order to use, either ascending (ASC) or descending (DESC). The NAME sort order is case sensitive. | | lifecycleState | string | | A filter to only return resources that match the given lifecycle state. The state value is case-insensitive. |
