# Get available model folders

`GET /api/experiment/models`

Returns a list of model folders available in the system.
This is an experimental endpoint that replaces the legacy /models endpoint.
Each folder's name is the identifier to pass to /api/experiment/models/{folder}.
The folder vocabulary is resolved per request from the caller's identity: where the
model_type migration is active for that caller the names are model_type folder_names
(e.g. `ultralytics_bbox`), and a folder with no folder_name mapping is returned by its
directory path. An authenticated response can therefore differ from an anonymous one.

## Response `200`

Success - List of model folders

- ModelFolder[]
  - `folders` string[], required — List of paths where models of this type are stored
  - `name` string, required — The name of the model folder

## Other responses
