# Nodetool tasks list

**tasks list** - Gets the list of task manager tasks in a provided module.
An operation may be repeated if appropriate flags are set.

## Syntax

```console
nodetool tasks list <module> [--internal] [(--keyspace <keyspace> | -ks <keyspace>)]
[(--table <table> | -t <table>)] [--interval <time_in_seconds>] [(--iterations <number> | -i <number>)]
```

## Options

* `--internal` - if set, internal tasks are listed. Internal tasks are the ones that
  have a parent or cover an operation that is invoked internally.
* `--keyspace` or `-ks` - shows only tasks on the specified keyspace.
* `--table` or `-t` - shows only tasks on the specified table.
* `--interval` - repeats the operation periodically at specified time intervals.
* `--iterations` or `-i` - repeats the operation specified number of times.

For example:

Shows all repair tasks on keyspace myks and table mytable:

```shell
> nodetool tasks list repair --internal -ks myks --table mytable
```

Shows all non-internal compaction tasks and repeats the operation 3 times every 5 seconds:

```shell
> nodetool tasks list compaction --interval 5 --i 3
```

## Example output

For single list:

```shell
task_id                              type   kind scope    state sequence_number keyspace table entity shard start_time           end_time
5116ddb6-85b5-4c3e-94fb-72128f15d7b4 repair node keyspace done  3               abc                   0     2025-01-16T16:12:11Z 2025-01-16T16:12:13Z
```

With repetition:

```shell
task_id                              type   kind scope    state   sequence_number keyspace table entity shard start_time           end_time
