API search parameters

Filters and other search parameters can be used with API functions that returns a list of records.

Examples

PHP

$url = 'Lead';

$where = [
    [
        'type' => 'isNotNull',
        'attribute' => 'assignedUserId',
    ],
    [
        'type' => 'or',
        'value' => [
            [
                'type' => 'equals',
                'attribute' => 'status',
                'value' => 'New',
            ],
            [
                'type' => 'equals',
                'attribute' => 'status',
                'value' => 'Assigned',
            ],
        ],
    ],
];

$boolFilterList = [
    // 'onlyMy',
    // 'followed',
];

// the list of available primary filters can obtained in a select manager class
$primaryFilter = 'primaryFilter';

// every param is optional
$params = [
    'offset' => 0,
    'maxSize' => 20,
    'where' => $where,
    'primaryFilter' => $primaryFilter,
    'boolFilterList' => $boolFilterList,
    'select' => 'id,name,assignedUserId,status', 
    'orderBy' => 'createdAt',
    'order' => 'desc',
];

$response = $client->request('GET', $url, $params);

Javascript (Nodejs)

// every param is optional
var params = {
    maxSize: 5,
    primaryFilter: 'open',
    where: [
        {
            type: 'equals',
            attribute: 'priority',
            value: 'Urgent',
        }
    ],
    select: 'id,name,assignedUserId,assignedUserName',
};

client.request('GET', 'Case', params)
    .then(
        (response) => {
            console.log(response);
        }
    )

Python

params = {
    "select": "id,phoneNumber",
    "where": [
        {
            "type": "equals",
            "attribute": "phoneNumber",
            "value": '+1',
        },
    ],
}
result = client.request('GET', 'Account', params)

Params

Parameters are passed as query parameters (in GET request).

As of v7.0.0 it's possible to pass all parameters in JSON format in one query parameter searchParams.

offset

Integer

An offset for pagination.

maxSize

Integer

How much records to return.

select

String (or Array of strings if search params passed in JSON)

What record attributes to return. Separated by comma. Whitespaces are not allowed. Specify only attributes that you need, it can improve performance.

Example: id,name,status,assignedUserId.

Example in JSON: ["id", "name"].

where

Array

Search criteria. Can contain nested arrays and objects. See more below more detail.

primaryFilter

String

A primary filter. Primary filters are usually defined in Select Manager class.

orderBy

Where parameter is an array if items, that can contain nested items. The data should be URL-encoded. API clients provided in the documentation handle encoding.
