Filters & Ordering

The SBO (Survey Back Office) Insights Exchange APIs facilitates the developers to filter and order the api's response data. To use the same, the developer need to pass api headers with their relative key and value(s).

  • For filtering data, the developer needs to add api-addon-where as key and "field/column name equals to value" as value. Note this filters are addon filters and it won't overwrite the mandatory where conditions of the apis. Let's check an example, let's say you want to filter surveys based on the country america then your api headers must contain api-addon-where: country_name like "%America%"
  • For ordering data, the developer needs to add api-order as key and "field/column" as value. Note:- This will overwrite the default order of the api. Now lets check an example, let's say you want to order data based on project name then your api headers must contain api-order: project_name"

Note: To know the field/column names you can refer the data that is provided by the api.
