Presuming you mean that you need to get a list of them all, there's a
few answers, depending on your needs. A couple of the answers already
given are pretty useful and I'll be filing the "exists" rs method away
for future use.
Something like
my %found = map +( $_ => 1 ),
$rs->search_rs( { key => { -in => [ ... ] } } )->get_column('key')->all;
might do the trick (not tested for typos).
