# ListAccessPolicies
<a name="API_ListAccessPolicies"></a>

Lists the available access policies. 

## Request Syntax
<a name="API_ListAccessPolicies_RequestSyntax"></a>

```
GET /access-policies?maxResults=maxResults&nextToken=nextToken HTTP/1.1
```

## URI Request Parameters
<a name="API_ListAccessPolicies_RequestParameters"></a>

The request uses the following URI parameters.

 ** [maxResults](#API_ListAccessPolicies_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="AmazonEKS-ListAccessPolicies-request-uri-maxResults"></a>
The maximum number of results, returned in paginated output. You receive `maxResults` in a single page, along with a `nextToken` response element. You can see the remaining results of the initial request by sending another request with the returned `nextToken` value. This value can be between 1 and 100. If you don't use this parameter, 100 results and a `nextToken` value, if applicable, are returned.  
Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 100.

 ** [nextToken](#API_ListAccessPolicies_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="AmazonEKS-ListAccessPolicies-request-uri-nextToken"></a>
The `nextToken` value returned from a previous paginated request, where `maxResults` was used and the results exceeded the value of that parameter. Pagination continues from the end of the previous results that returned the `nextToken` value. This value is null when there are no more results to return.  
This token should be treated as an opaque identifier that is used only to retrieve the next items in a list and not for other programmatic purposes.

## Examples
<a name="API_ListAccessPolicies_Examples"></a>

In the following example or examples, the Authorization header contents (`AUTHPARAMS`) must be replaced with an AWS Signature Version 4 signature. For more information about creating these signatures, see [Signature Version 4 Signing Process](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/signature-version-4.html) in the *Amazon EKS General Reference*.

You need to learn how to sign HTTP requests only if you intend to manually create them. When you use the [AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI)](http://aws.amazon.com/cli/) or one of the [AWS SDKs](http://aws.amazon.com/tools/) to make requests to AWS, these tools automatically sign the requests for you with the access key that you specify when you configure the tools. When you use these tools, you don't need to learn how to sign requests yourself.
