# List identifiers for a record

> Retrieve active identifiers assigned to one asset, location, or part



## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi.yaml get /identifiers
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Canary API
  version: '1.0'
  description: >
    Build integrations around Canary work orders, requests, equipment,
    inventory, meters,

    custom fields, and scannable identifiers.


    ## Authentication


    All API requests require authentication using an API key. Include your API
    key in the `Authorization` header:


    ```

    Authorization: Bearer sk_live_your_api_key_here

    ```


    ## Rate Limits


    - **Live keys**: 1,000 requests per minute

    - **Test keys**: 100 requests per minute


    Both key prefixes access the same organization data. The prefix selects the
    rate-limit bucket.


    Successful authenticated responses include rate limit headers:

    - `X-RateLimit-Limit`: Maximum requests per window

    - `X-RateLimit-Remaining`: Requests remaining in current window

    - `X-RateLimit-Reset`: Unix timestamp when the window resets


    ## Pagination


    Canary-native list endpoints use ID cursors and the standard `data`/`meta`
    envelope.

    MaintainX-compatible request endpoints use their compatibility response
    wrappers and

    encoded offset cursors. Follow each operation's response schema.


    Native list responses include:

    - `data`: Array of items

    - `meta.pagination.cursor`: Cursor for the next page (if `has_more` is true)

    - `meta.pagination.has_more`: Whether more items exist


    Use the cursor value in your next request: `?cursor=<cursor_value>`
