Alibaba Cloud Model Studio:ListIndexDocuments

Last Updated:Jul 01, 2026

Retrieves files and their summary information from a specified knowledge base.

Operation description

  • Resource Access Management (RAM) users must first obtain API permissions for Model Studio (requires AliyunBailianDataFullAccess, which includes the sfm:ListIndexFiles permission) and join a workspace before invoking this operation. Alibaba Cloud accounts can invoke this operation directly without authorization. Use the latest Model Studio SDK to invoke this operation.

  • Before invoking this operation, make sure that your knowledge base has been created and has not been deleted (that is, the knowledge base ID IndexId is valid).

  • This operation has idempotence.

Throttling: This operation is throttled if called too frequently. Do not exceed 15 calls per second. If you are throttled, retry later.

Try it now

Try this API in OpenAPI Explorer, no manual signing needed. Successful calls auto-generate SDK code matching your parameters. Download it with built-in credential security for local usage.

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.
