### Listing rooms
### Room directory
Homeservers MAY publish a room directory to allow users to discover rooms. A room
can have one of two visibility settings in the directory:
`public`
The room will be shown in the published room directory.
`private`
The room will be hidden from the published room directory.
Clients can define a room's initial visibility in the directory via the `visibility`
parameter in [`/createRoom`](#post_matrixclientv3createroom). Irrespective of room
creation, clients can query and change a room's visibility in the directory through
the endpoints listed below, provided that the server permits this.
{{% boxes/warning %}}
The visibility setting merely defines whether a room is included in the published
room directory or not. It doesn't make any guarantees about the room's
[join rule](#mroomjoin_rules) or [history visibility](#room-history-visibility).
In particular, a visibility setting of `public` should not be confused with a `public`
join rule. Rooms with a join rule of `knock`, for instance, could reasonably be published
in the directory, too.
Similarly, a visibility setting of `public` does not necessarily imply a `world_readable`
history visibility.
To increase performance, servers MAY apply additional filters when listing the
directory, for instance, by automatically excluding rooms with `invite` join rules
that are not `world_readable` regarless of their visibility.

## Public Room Directory
## Room Directory
To complement the [Client-Server
API](/client-server-api)'s room directory,
homeservers need a way to query the public rooms for another server.
To complement the [room directory in the Client-Server API](/client-server-api#room-directory),
homeservers need a way to query the published rooms of another server.
This can be done by making a request to the `/publicRooms` endpoint for
the server the room directory should be retrieved for.
