# LRANGE

> Get range of elements.

Use `LRANGE` to read a range of elements from a list.

Both `<start>` and `<stop>` are zero-based, inclusive, and may be negative to count from the tail, so `LRANGE key 0 -1` returns the whole list and `LRANGE key 0 9` returns the first ten elements. Out-of-range indexes are clamped instead of producing an error, and a range that selects nothing, or a missing key, returns an empty list.

The command copies the requested range into the reply, so reading a large list in one call is expensive: page through it with successive ranges when the list is big.

## Syntax

```redis theme={"system"}
LRANGE <key> <start> <stop>
```

## Arguments

| Argument | Required | Repeatable | Description |
| - | - | - | - |
| `<key>` | Yes | No | Redis key targeted by the command. |
| `<start>` | Yes | No | Start index; negative values count from the end. |
| `<stop>` | Yes | No | Stop index, inclusive; negative values count from the end. |

## Response

The reply reports the result of the operation. Error replies have the same shape in RESP2 and RESP3 and are surfaced as exceptions by the SDKs below.

| Protocol | Reply |
| - | - |
| RESP2 | Array of bulk-string values |
| RESP3 | Array of bulk-string values |

> [!NOTE]
>
> Client libraries often decode bulk strings, maps, sets, and numeric strings into language-native values. The table describes the Redis wire reply.

## Examples

TCP examples use the TLS `REDIS_URL` from the Upstash console. REST examples use `UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL` and `UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN`.
