ARGET

Get the value at an array index.
2 min read

Use ARGET to read the value stored at a single array index.

The reply is null when the slot is empty and when the key does not exist at all, so a missing array and a hole inside an existing one look the same. Use ARCOUNT or EXISTS when the difference matters. To read many slots at once, ARMGET takes a list of indexes and ARGETRANGE takes a range.

See the array command overview for the data model these commands share.

Note

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

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