## Knowledge bases list

`GET /v1/note/collections`

Returns the knowledge bases available to the current API key in the Bitrix24 account. Supports cursor pagination for traversing large lists.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|----------|-----|:-----:|---------|
| `limit` (query) | integer | no | Page size. Defaults to 50, from 1 to 200 |
| `afterPosition` (query) | integer | no | The `position` value from `meta.nextCursor` of the previous response. Passed together with `afterId` |
| `afterId` (query) | integer | no | The `id` value from `meta.nextCursor` of the previous response. Passed together with `afterPosition` |

**Pagination.** Cursor-based. `limit` sets the page size. For the next page, pass `afterPosition` and `afterId` from `meta.nextCursor` of the previous response. When `meta.nextCursor` is `null`, there are no more pages.
