It is possible to use in operator for properties id, category and tag. For example to get packages with id1, id2, id3 use id=in:id1,id2,id3.

List packages

/v1/catalog/packages?{marker}{limit}{order_by}{type}{category}{fqn}{owned}{id}{catalog}{class_name}{name} [GET]

This is the compound request to list and search through application catalog. If there are no search parameters all packages that is_public, enabled and belong to the user’s project will be listed. Default order is by ‘created’ field. For an admin role all packages are available.

marker string A package identifier marker may be specified. When present only packages which occur after the identifier ID will be listed
limit string When present the maximum number of results returned will not exceed the specified value. The typical pattern of limit and marker is to make an initial limited request and then to use the ID of the last package from the response as the marker parameter in a subsequent limited request.
order_by string Allows to sort packages by: fqn, name, created. Created is default value.
type string Allows to point a type of package: application, library
category string Allows to point a categories for a search
fqn string Allows to point a fully qualified package name for a search
owned bool Search only from packages owned by current project
id string Allows to point an id for a search
include_disabled bool Include disabled packages in a the result
