# Redshift Data List Databases

List the names of the databases visible from a Redshift cluster or Serverless workgroup.

**Note**: `Database` is the database the Data API connects through in order to run the listing - it is required, and it is not a filter. Every cluster and workgroup is created with a `dev` database, which is the usual value to use here.

Results are paginated. When the response contains a `NextToken`, run the action again with that value in `Next Token` to fetch the next page.
