# List Title Entries
> Retrieve and filter title entries using query parameters
Use this endpoint to list title entries, look up a single entry by VIN, or return aggregate counts by title state.
## Response Shapes
Default list responses use:
Title entries in the current page.
Number of entries in the current page.
Pagination token for the next page, when more results are available.
Whether another page of results is available.
When `vin` is supplied, the API returns a single title entry or `404` if no matching entry exists. Single-entry reads rewrite document paths to presigned URLs.
When `stateMap=true` is supplied, the API returns a map of state codes to counts, such as:
```json theme={null}
{
"CA": 42,
"TX": 17
}
```
