# List Tags

`GET /tags`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.wistia.com/modern`
- URL: `https://api.wistia.com/modern/tags`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Lists tags belonging to the account.

## Requires api token with one of the following permissions
```
Read all data
```

Tokens with the "Act with a team member's permissions" permission
(`all:delegate_to_contact_permissions` scope) can also be used. Requests
made with such a token are authorized using the permissions of the
contact assigned to the token.

An [expiring access token](https://docs.wistia.com/reference/post_expiring-token)
created with the `all:delegate_to_contact_permissions` scope and an
authorization granting the `view-tags` or `manage-tags` permission on the
account can also be used.

## Query parameters

- `page` integer
- `per_page` integer
- `cursor` object
  - `enabled` 0 | 1: If `cursor[enabled]` is set to 1, the first result set will be fetched with cursor pagination enabled. This values is ignored if `cursor[before]` or `cursor[after]` are set.
  - `before` string: If `cursor[before]` is set then cursor pagination is enabled and all records before the cursor up to the `per_page` are returned. This feature is useful for fetching "new records", for example, in a "pull to refersh" feature when showing records in a descending order.
  - `after` string: If `cursor[after]` is set then cursor pagination is enabled and all records after the cursor up to the `per_page` are returned.
- `sort_by` 'name' | 'created' | 'updated' | 'taggingsCount' | 'id'
- `sort_direction` 0 | 1
