# Metadata Coverage Page

You can use Metadata Coverage, to find the exact API name of components you are trying to work with (link also in description): https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/metadata-coverage/60

### Do you struggle to memorize all the metadata names?

If so, you probably see a similar message:

```bash
js@os ~/project (main)> sf project retrieve start --metadata AuraComponentBundle:SuperSecretComponent
Preparing retrieve request... Error
Error (1): The specified metadata type is unsupported: [AuraComponentBundle]
```

Don’t worry, there is a page that can help you!

Now I know that the correct name is “AuraDefinitionBundle”:

```bash
js@os ~/project (main) > sf project retrieve start --metadata AuraDefinitionBundle:SuperSecretComponent
