# List collections

    Komga REST API.


    ## Reference


    Check the API reference:

    - on the [Komga website](https://komga.org/docs/openapi/komga-api)

    - on any running Komga instance at `/swagger-ui.html`

    - on
    [GitHub](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gotson/komga/refs/heads/master/komga/docs/openapi.json)


    ## Authentication


    Most endpoints require authentication. Authentication is done using either:

    - Basic Authentication

    - Passing an API Key in the `X-API-Key` header


    ## Sessions


    Upon successful authentication, a session is created, and can be reused.


    - By default, a `KOMGA-SESSION` cookie is set via `Set-Cookie` response
    header. This works well for browsers and clients that can handle cookies.

    - If you specify a header `X-Auth-Token` during authentication, the session
    ID will be returned via this same header. You can then pass that header
    again for subsequent requests to reuse the session.


    If you need to set the session cookie later on, you can call
    `/api/v1/login/set-cookie` with `X-Auth-Token`. The response will contain
    the `Set-Cookie` header.


    ## Remember Me


    During authentication, if a request parameter `remember-me` is passed and
    set to `true`, the server will also return a `komga-remember-me` cookie.
    This cookie will be used to login automatically even if the session has
    expired.


    ## Logout


    You can explicitly logout an existing session by calling `/api/logout`. This
    would return a `204`.


    ## Deprecation


    API endpoints marked as deprecated will be removed in the next major
    version.
