= Gerrit Code Review - /plugins/ REST API
This page describes the plugin related REST endpoints.
Please also take note of the general information on the
link:rest-api.html[REST API].
[[plugin-endpoints]]
== Plugin Endpoints
Gerrit REST endpoints for installed plugins are available under
'/plugins/link:#plugin-id[\{plugin-id\}]/gerrit~<endpoint-id>'.
The `gerrit~` prefix ensures that the Gerrit REST endpoints for plugins
do not clash with any REST endpoint that a plugin may offer under its
namespace.
[[list-plugins]]
=== List Plugins
--
'GET /plugins/'
--
Lists the plugins installed on the Gerrit server. Only the enabled
plugins are returned unless the `all` option is specified.
To be allowed to see the installed plugins, a user must be a member of
a group that is granted the 'View Plugins' capability or the
'Administrate Server' capability.
As result a map is returned that maps the plugin IDs to
link:#plugin-info[PluginInfo] entries. The entries in the map are sorted
by plugin ID.
