# Browse Catalog

`GET /v1/registries/catalog/browse`

Browse one catalog type: filtered, sorted and paged server-side.

Paging every registry of a type separately and merging client-side cannot
be made correct -- a single offset has no meaning over the concatenation --
so the whole type is paged as one ordered result here instead.

## Query parameters

- `registry_type` string, required — Catalog type to browse
- `q` string, nullable — Free-text filter over name and description
- `category` string, nullable — Restrict to one category facet
- `sort` string, nullable — 'featured' (default) or 'name'
- `limit` integer
- `offset` integer

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- CatalogBrowseResponse — One page of a type's catalog plus the context needed to browse it. ``total`` and ``categories`` cover the whole filtered catalog, not the page: without them a page that happens to contain no visible matches is indistinguishable from the end of the catalog, and facet counts drift as more pages load.
  - `categories` CategoryFacet[], required
    - `count` integer, required
    - `value` string, required
  - `items` RegistryItemResponse[], required
    - `category` string, nullable

    - `description` string, nullable, required
    - `external_id` string, required
    - `featured` boolean
    - `id` string, uuid, required

    - `name` string, required
    - `registry_id` string, uuid, required
    - `spec` object, required
    - `tags` string[], required
    - `update_available` boolean, required
