# Use `ListObjects` with a CLI
<a name="s3_example_s3_ListObjects_section"></a>

The following code examples show how to use `ListObjects`.

Action examples are code excerpts from larger programs and must be run in context. You can see this action in context in the following code example: 
+  [Create a web page that lists Amazon S3 objects](s3_example_s3_Scenario_ListObjectsWeb_section.md)

#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
The following example uses the `list-objects` command to display the names of all the objects in the specified bucket:  

```
aws s3api list-objects --bucket text-content --query 'Contents[].{Key: Key, Size: Size}'
```
The example uses the `--query` argument to filter the output of `list-objects` down to the key value and size for each object  
For more information about objects, see Working with Amazon S3 Objects in the *Amazon S3 Developer Guide*.  
+  For API details, see [ListObjects](https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/s3api/list-objects.html) in *AWS CLI Command Reference*.
