# List Variable Definitions

> List environment-variable definitions for the org.

List the environment-variable *definitions* for your organization, paginated. A definition describes a variable's name, scope, format, and whether it's encrypted — the actual values are managed separately (see [Set Variable Value](/v3/api-reference/environment-variables/set-value)).

## Authentication

Definitions are org-level, so this endpoint uses API-key auth.

<ParamField header="x-api-key" type="string" required>Your Refold API key.</ParamField>

<ParamField query="name" type="string">Filter by name (regex).</ParamField>
