Sorting

Plural endpoints support sorting of their contained elements. For example, you can sort the records in a collection. To do this, provide an additional query parameter specifying the sort key.

  • /collection?_sort=field,-last_modified

Sorts according to field ascending, with ties being broken according to last_modified descending.

Note

  • Sort order is -last_modified by default
  • Sorting by sub-object is possible (e.g. ?_sort=field.subfield)
  • Ordering on a boolean field gives true values first.
