# List All Audio Files

> Retrieve a paginated list of all audio files in your collection

Retrieve all audio files in a collection for browsing and management.

<CodeGroup>
  ```python Python theme={null}
  import videodb

  conn = videodb.connect(api_key="your_api_key")
  coll = conn.get_collection()

  # List all audio files
  audios = coll.get_audios()
  for audio in audios:
      print(f"{audio.id}: {audio.name} ({audio.length}s)")
  ```

  ```javascript Node.js theme={null}
  import { connect } from 'videodb';

  const conn = connect({ apiKey: 'your_api_key' });
  const coll = await conn.getCollection();

  // List all audio files
  const audios = await coll.getAudios();
  for (const audio of audios) {
      console.log(`${audio.id}: ${audio.name} (${audio.length}s)`);
  }
  ```
</CodeGroup>

<Note>
  * Audio IDs have an `a-` prefix (e.g., `a-abc123def`)
  * Each audio file includes duration in seconds via the `length` property
  * Use this to build audio galleries or management interfaces
