```
VSIM.LIST
```

- Group: Vector search
- Complexity: O(N) where N is the number of files in the directory
- HotKV Cloud: Performance and Scale plans
- On-Premise: requires the vsim-persist license feature

VSIM persistence stores named blobs of vector data that you supply, such as an exported set of embeddings, as files on the server, separate from your snapshots and AOF. Each blob goes to a file named after it in the directory set by `dir` under `[vsim_persist]` (default `vsim_snapshots`) when `enabled = true` there. The files are local to each server, also in a cluster. `VSIM.LIST` returns the names of the saved blobs on this server, in
no particular order.

## Return value

| Case | RESP2 | RESP3 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Always | Array of bulk strings (empty if there are none) | Same |

Errors:

- `ERR wrong number of arguments for 'vsim.list' command` if the argument count is wrong.
- `NOLICENSE vsim-persist requires a HotKV license. Contact sales@hotkv.com` if your license does not include the `vsim-persist` feature.
