# Retrieve Clusters

You can retrieve a list of all Network File Storage clusters in your contract. The number of results displayed on each page depends on the following values:

* `limit` limits the number of response elements.
* `offset` specifies the starting point within the collection of resource results returned from the server.

Additionally, you can also use a response filter (`filter.datacenterId`) to list only the clusters within the specified data center.

## Endpoints

Use a [<mark style="color:blue;">region-specific endpoint</mark>](/cloud/backup-and-storage/network-file-storage/api-how-tos.md#regional-endpoints) to retrieve all clusters: `https://nfs.{region}.ionos.com/clusters`

## Request

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** The following request contains sample values. Remember to replace them with the relevant information.
{% endhint %}

```json
curl -X 'GET' \
  'https://nfs.de-txl.ionos.com/clusters?offset=0&limit=100' \
  -H 'accept: application/json'
```

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Request Header Parameters" %}
To make authenticated requests to the API, the following fields are mandatory in the request header:

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.ionos.com/cloud/backup-and-storage/network-file-storage/api-how-tos/retrieve-clusters.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
