# List workspace post templates <Badge intent="info" minimal outlined>OAuth Scope: posts:read</Badge>

GET https://api.beehiiv.com/v2/workspaces/post_templates

This feature is currently in beta and the API is subject to change.

Retrieve the post templates that belong to the workspace. A workspace post template is owned by the organization rather than by a single publication, so every publication in the workspace can start a post from it. Requires an API key with access to every publication in the workspace.

Reference: https://developers.beehiiv.com/api-reference/post-templates/workspace-index

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — Bearer authentication of the form `Bearer <token>`, where token is your auth token.

## Request

### Query parameters

- `limit` (integer, optional) — A limit on the number of objects to be returned. The limit can range between 1 and 100, and the default is 10.
- `cursor` (string, optional) — **Cursor-based pagination (recommended)**: Use this opaque cursor token to fetch the next page of results. When provided, pagination will use cursor-based method which is more efficient and consistent than offset-based pagination.
- `page` (integer, optional) — **Offset-based pagination (deprecated)**: Page number for offset-based pagination. Please migrate to cursor-based pagination using the `cursor` parameter. If not specified, results 1-10 from page 1 will be returned.

## Response

OK

- `data` (list of PostTemplate, required) — An array of workspace post templates.
- `limit` (integer, optional) — The limit placed on the results. If no limit was specified in the request, this defaults to 10.
- `has_more` (boolean, optional) — **Cursor pagination only**: Indicates whether there are more results available after the current page. Only present when using cursor-based pagination.
- `next_cursor` (string, optional) — **Cursor pagination only**: The cursor token to use for fetching the next page of results. This will be null if has_more is false. Only present when using cursor-based pagination.
- `page` (integer, optional) — **Offset pagination only**: The page of results returned. Only present when using the deprecated `page` parameter.
- `total_results` (integer, optional) — The total number of results from all pages.
