# List Tracks

> Paginated listing of every track on a tape, named and nameless alike.

Lists everything on a tape: named tracks, stream segments, raw blobs, all of it.

The contrast with [list objects](/apis/gateway/objects/list-objects): that endpoint shows the named, S3-style view. This one shows the whole tape, including the tracks that never appear in object listings ([the named/nameless distinction](/protocol/architecture/objects)).

## Request and response

The request carries a continuation `cursor` (a track number) and a `limit`. The response is a page of track records plus a `next_cursor` when there's more. Both travel in the SDK's binary encoding ([conventions](/apis/gateway)).

From Rust, `list_tracks_by_tape` walks the same records from chain state ([Rust SDK](/sdks/rust#the-modules)).
