# List operator fixed-width layout templates

`GET /v1/imports/formats/templates`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://identity.sandbox.lerian.net`
- URL: `https://identity.sandbox.lerian.net/v1/imports/formats/templates`
- Auth: HTTP bearer
- TypeScript: <https://skmtc.dev/lerian/apis/identity-plugin/docs/v1/imports/formats/templates/get.ts> (a function with typed inputs; its response is checked against the schema)

Returns every active per-tenant fixed-width layout template. The list is unpaginated: layout templates are bounded operator config. Tenant from the JWT; never the body.
