# List Document Indexing Tasks

> Lists a document's indexing tasks from uploads and syncs, oldest first, each with its outcome. Failed and canceled tasks are included.

The newest task is on the last page. For the task running now, read `latest_task` on [Get Document](/en/api-reference/documents-and-chunks/get-document) instead.

An unknown document ID, including a document file ID, answers `200` with an empty `data`. A page can hold fewer than `limit` tasks, so follow `next_cursor` until it is `null`.

For which task operation to use when, see [Track Indexing](/en/api-reference/guides/knowledge-base#track-indexing).
