List Models

models.list(**kwargs) -> SyncPage[ModelInfo]
GET/v1/models

List available models.

The Models API response can be used to determine which models are available for use in the API. More recently released models are listed first.

Parameters
after_id: Optional[str]⁠Query parameter

ID of the object to use as a cursor for pagination. When provided, returns the page of results immediately after this object.

before_id: Optional[str]⁠Query parameter

ID of the object to use as a cursor for pagination. When provided, returns the page of results immediately before this object.

lifecycle: Optional[List[Literal["active", "deprecated", "retired"]]]⁠Query parameter

Filter the list to models in any of the given lifecycle stages (active, deprecated, or retired). Up to 3 values. When omitted, the list contains the active and deprecated models; retired models appear only when retired is requested explicitly.

maxItems3
One of the following:
"active"
"deprecated"
"retired"
limit: Optional[int]⁠Query parameter

Number of items to return per page.

Defaults to 20. Ranges from 1 to 1000.

default20
minimum1
maximum1000
workspace_id: Optional[str]⁠Header parameter

Optional header to select the Workspace for this request. The value is a Workspace ID (for example, wrkspc_011CZkZaBF1tNoB5wlCeusgy).

Only needed for credentials that can act on more than one Workspace. A credential that belongs to a specific Workspace may omit it; if sent, it must match that Workspace.

betas: Optional[List[AnthropicBetaParam]]⁠Header parameterDeprecated

Optional header to specify the beta version(s) you want to use.

Deprecated. This parameter will be removed from this method in a future release. To use beta features, call the beta models methods (`client.beta.models`) instead.
