Retrieving a list of all packages gives you the ability to display the list and browse by database. The PublicationIQ Get All Packages resource allows you to retrieve a list of all packages from EPKB limited to a single customer ID. The request will yield a list of package objects. Each package object will contain an id, name and content type. See an example display below.

If you would like to search for packages, the PublicationIQ Get Packages by Package Name resource allows you to search for packages. The Get Packages by Package Name resource returns a list of packages from EPKB that is limited to a single customer ID.
