# Retrieve All Distributions

{% hint style="info" %}
**Prerequisite:** Only contract administrators, owners, and users with `accessAndManageCdn` privilege can create and manage CDN distributions via the API. You can also set user privileges in the DCD. For more information, see [<mark style="color:blue;">Set User Privileges</mark>](https://docs.ionos.com/sections-test/guides/network-services/cdn/dcd-how-tos/set-user-privileges-cdn-dcd).
{% endhint %}

To retrieve all the CDN distributions under a contract, perform a `GET` request.

## Endpoint

Use the following endpoint to retrieve all CDN distributions for a contract: `https://cdn.de-fra.ionos.com/distributions`.

## Request

```bash
curl --location \  
--request GET  'https://cdn.de-fra.ionos.com/distributions?offset=0&limit=100' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJraWQiO' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
```

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

| Header Parameters | Required |  Type  | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       |
