# Getting the generator IDs and available metadata

{% hint style="info" %}
Requires the Advanced API. The Advanced API requires an Enterprise license.
{% endhint %}

When you use the API to assign generators, you use the generator identifier.

To retrieve the list of generators, use:

[<mark style="background-color:blue;">**GET**</mark>**&#x20;api/GeneratorMetadata**](https://app.tonic.ai/apidocs/index.html#/GeneratorMetadata/GetAllGenerators)

In the results, the message body is an array of [`GeneratorMetadataResponseModel`](https://app.tonic.ai/apidocs/index.html#/models/GeneratorMetadataResponseModel) objects.

The information for each generator includes the generator ID. It also specifies whether the generator supports configuration options such as linking, consistency, differential privacy configuration, and partitioning.
