## Response

### 200

<ResponseField name="Records" type="DocumentTemplate[]">
  The list of DocumentTemplate records matching the query. See the [Get one DocumentTemplate](/rest-api/crm/get-documenttemplates-by-id) endpoint for the full list of properties returned for each record.
</ResponseField>

<Warning>
  **Partial records** — The listing endpoint returns a summary representation of each DocumentTemplate. The following fields are **not populated** in the `Records[]` response: `Document`, `TemplateOutputFormat`.

  To get all fields, fetch the full record using the [Get one DocumentTemplate](/rest-api/crm/get-documenttemplates-by-id) endpoint.

  **Important for updates:** When updating a record via `PUT`, always retrieve the full record with a `GET` request first, apply your changes to that complete data, and then send the updated record. Do not use data from a listing response as the base for a `PUT` request, as missing fields may be unintentionally cleared.

  Current page number.
