# Namespaces API
Usernames and groupnames fall under a special category called namespaces.
For users and groups supported API calls see the [users](users.md) and
[groups](groups.md) documentation respectively.
[Pagination](README.md#pagination) is used.
## List namespaces
Get a list of the namespaces of the authenticated user. If the user is an
administrator, a list of all namespaces in the GitLab instance is shown.
```
GET /namespaces
```
Example request:
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: 9koXpg98eAheJpvBs5tK" https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/namespaces
```
Example response:
```json
[
{
"id": 1,
"name": "user1",
"path": "user1",
"kind": "user",
"full_path": "user1"
},
{
"id": 2,
"name": "group1",
