# List Documents

> The files your entities hold

Returns the documents your entities own, newest first: compliance policies, contracts and free-form files, with their version history.

Deleted documents are excluded.

<Warning>
  **Metadata only.** No download URL is returned, and there is no endpoint on this API that mints one — the same as the upstream file-documents surface. `s3VersionId` identifies a version; it is not a link and cannot be fetched.
</Warning>

## Narrowing

`downstreamEntityId` limits the list to one entity, `category` to one document category.
