# List Templates

> List the team's template canvases with signed thumbnails (newest first).

The discovery half of the template flow: VIEW the thumbnails (download the
signed URLs and look at them — same discipline as brand logos), pick a
template whose look fits, then instantiate it with ``POST /v1/canvases`` +
``template_canvas_id``. ``total`` is the true team-wide template count;
when ``has_more`` is ``true``, pass ``next_cursor`` for the rest.

Team-scoped only — templates from other teams never appear, and the ids
here are ordinary canvas ids usable across the canvas endpoints.

  title: Moda Public API
  description: >
    Programmatic access to Moda's canvas design platform. Create designs, export
    assets, manage brand kits, and run AI design tasks.


    ## Versioning


    Pin response shapes with a calendar-dated `Moda-Version` header (e.g.
    `2026-05-01`). **The pin is global** — it applies to every endpoint in the
    request, not just the one you adopted it for, so raising it to use a new
    endpoint also moves your other responses to that version's shapes.


    ### Migrating `2026-04-12` → `2026-05-01`


    - **Tasks** move from the flat `JobResponse` (`job_id`, `canvas_url`,
    `can_export`) to the canonical `Task` envelope. The export artifact is now
    under `result.export` as `{url, format, page_count}`; update any code that
    read the export URL from the old top-level fields.

    - **Multi-page PNG/JPEG exports are delivered as a single `.zip`** of
    per-page files (`page-1.png`, …), so `result.export.format` is `zip`. For
    one bundled document instead, request `format=pdf` or `pptx`; for a single
    image, pass `page_number`.

        ``total`` is the true team-wide template count — the filter is an
        indexed

        real column (``template_type``) over a small team-scoped set, so the
        COUNT

        is cheap (the brand-kits lane's posture, not the JSONB-bound canvases

        lane's). ``returned``/``has_more`` are derived server-side.
