List modules
List the modules in a project. Use it to build a delivery board, to find the module a sync run created, or to pull everything a person leads.
Results are paginated and, by default, ordered by sort_order — the order modules appear in the Plane UI.
Path Parameters
slug:requiredstringThe workspace slug. It appears in your Plane URLs. In https://app.plane.so/my-team/projects/, the slug is my-team.
project_id:requiredstring (uuid)The project whose modules you want.
Query Parameters
Filters
name:optionalstringReturn only modules whose name matches exactly, ignoring case. For a partial match, use search.
status:optionalstringReturn only modules in this lifecycle position. One of backlog, planned, in-progress, paused, completed, or cancelled.
Use status__in with a comma-separated list to match several at once, for example ?status__in=planned,in-progress.
lead_id:optionalstring (uuid)Return only modules led by this user. Match is exact on the module's lead_id.
external_id:optionalstringReturn only modules carrying this external identifier. Pair it with external_source to resolve a record you imported from another system.
external_source:optionalstringReturn only modules that came from this system, for example github or jira.
is_archived:optionalbooleantrue returns only archived modules. false returns only active modules, the same set as the default.
include_archived:optionalbooleantrue returns archived and active modules together. Without it, the list hides archived modules. When you also pass is_archived, is_archived decides the result.
Search
search:optionalstringFree-text match on the module name.
Ordering
order_by:optionalstringField to sort by. Prefix with - for descending.
sort_order,-sort_ordercreated_at,-created_atid,-id
Defaults to sort_order.
Pagination
per_page:optionalintegerPage size. Defaults to 50, maximum 200.
offset:optionalintegerNumber of rows to skip from the start of the result set. Maximum 10000 — go deeper with cursor pagination.
paginate:optionalstringSet to cursor to opt into the COUNT-free keyset envelope, then follow next_cursor with ?cursor=.
count:optionalbooleanSet to false to skip the count query and omit total_count from the offset envelope. Defaults to true.
Cursor needs an explicit order_by
The default sort_order is not unique, so it can't back a stable keyset. A bare ?paginate=cursor returns 400 ordering_not_cursor_eligible. Pair it with a cursor-eligible ordering — ?paginate=cursor&order_by=created_at — or stay on offset.
Enum filters are validated
status and status__in are checked against the allowed values. A typo like ?status=in_progress is a clean 400 invalid_request, not an empty result set.
Archived modules are hidden by default
The list leaves out modules with archived_at set unless you pass is_archived or include_archived. Send true or false in lowercase. Neither parameter is validated. include_archived widens the list only for true. Any is_archived value other than true or false lifts the default filter, so archived and active modules come back together.
Response shaping
fields:optionalstringComma-separated list of fields to return on each row. Unrequested keys are omitted from the response, not returned as null, so absent means "not requested" and null means "actually null". id always comes back whether or not you name it.
Pass all for every requestable field. An unknown name is a 400 that lists the valid set and suggests the closest match, so a typo can't silently cost you the saving.
Requestable here: archived_at, backlog_issues, cancelled_issues, completed_issues, created_at, created_by_id, description, description_html, external_id, external_source, id, lead_id, logo_props, member_ids, name, sort_order, start_date, started_issues, status, target_date, total_issues, unstarted_issues, updated_at, updated_by_id.
List rows leave out description_html and the six progress counts (total_issues, backlog_issues, unstarted_issues, started_issues, completed_issues, cancelled_issues). Name them here, or pass all, to get them. See Progress counts.
See Sparse fields.
expand:optionalstringComma-separated relations to embed alongside the ids: lead (the module lead), members (the module members).
Expansion is separate-key: ?expand=state keeps state_id and adds a state object next to it, so an id is never replaced by an object. An unknown value is a 400.
?fields= and ?expand= are independent namespaces. Relation names are not valid ?fields= tokens (and vice versa), and an expanded object survives field filtering — ?fields=id,name&expand=state returns id, name and state. See Expanding relations.
