API documentation
Lists generally return aggregations of data, such as pages gathered from across a wiki, or links gathered within a single page. To request a list, pass the list
parameter of your query string a valid list submodule, such as allimages
or usercontribs
.
To use the list API, specify action=query&list=list1|list2
in the URL.

Additional notes
- Most list submodules can be used as generators , unless otherwise noted.
- Lists differ from properties in that, instead of appending data to the elements in the
pages
element, each list has its own separated branch in thequery
element.
- List query limits:
- The results limit can be set as high as 500 for regular users, or 5000 for users with the
apihighlimits
right (typically bots and sysops). - Some modules impose stricter limits under certain conditions. See this subpage for more details.
- If you are not sure which limit applies to you and just want as many results as possible, set the limit to
max
. In that case, alimits
element will be returned, specifying the limits used. - The limit parameter for a given module consists of the module prefix followed by
limit
, soptlimit
is the maximum number ofprotectedtitles
returned, andcmlimit
is the maximum number ofcategorymembers
returned.
