Query Parameters

• expand: string
  When this parameter is provided, the specified children are included in the resource payload (instead of just a link). The value of this query parameter is "all" or "". More than one child can be specified using comma as a separator. Example: ?expand=Employees,Localizations. Nested children can also be provided following the format "Child.NestedChild" (Example: ?expand=Employees.Managers). If a nested child is provided (Example: Employees.Managers), the missing children will be processed implicitly. For example, "?expand=Employees.Managers" is the same as "?expand=Employees,Employees.Managers" (which will expand Employees and Managers).
• fields: string
  This parameter filters the resource fields. Only the specified fields are returned, which means that if no fields are specified, no fields are returned (useful to get only the links). If an indirect child resource is provided (Example: Employees.Managers), the missing children will be processed implicitly. For example, "?fields=Employees.Managers:Empname" is the same as "?fields=;Employees:;Employees.Managers:Empname" (which will only return the "Empname" field for Managers). the value of this query parameter is a list of resource fields. The attribute can be a direct (Example: Employees) or indirect (Example: Employees.Managers) child. It cannot be combined with expand query parameter. If both are provided, only fields will be considered.
  
  Format: ?fields=Attribute1,Attribute2
  
  Format for fields in child resource: ?fields=Accessor1:Attribute1,Attribute2
• finder: string
  Used as a predefined finder to search the collection.
  
  Format ?finder=<finderName>;<variableName>=<variableValue>,<variableName2>=<variableValue2>
  
  The following are the available finder names and corresponding finder variables
  
  

  • PrimaryKey Finds all the content types that match the specified primary key criteria.
    Finder Variables
    • ContentTypeId; integer; Unique identifier of the content type.
  • findByContextName Finds all the content types that match the specified context name.
    Finder Variables
    • ContextName; string; Unique code representing the content type.
  • findByWord Finds all content types that match the specified criteria.
    Finder Variables
    • ContextName; string; Unique code representing the content type.
    • FilterAttributes; string; List of attributes for the search terms.
    • SearchTerms; string; Search term criteria to retrieve data.
    • StartsWithFlag; string; Indicator to retrieve data that starts with the search term.
• limit: integer
  This parameter restricts the number of resources returned inside the resource collection. If the limit exceeds the resource count then the framework will only return the available resources.
• links: string
  This parameter can be used to show only certain links while accessing a singular resource or a resource collection. The parameter value format is a comma-separated list of : <link_relation>
  
  Example:
  self,canonical
  
• offset: integer
  Used to define the starting position of the resource collection. If offset exceeds the resource count then no resources are returned. Default value is 0.
• onlyData: boolean
  The resource item payload will be filtered in order to contain only data (no links section, for example).
• orderBy: string
  This parameter orders a resource collection based on the specified fields. The parameter value is a comma-separated string of attribute names, each optionally followed by a colon and "asc" or "desc". Specify "asc" for ascending and "desc" for descending. The default value is "asc". For example, ?orderBy=field1:asc,field2:desc
• q: string
  This query parameter defines the where clause. The resource collection will be queried using the provided expressions. The value of this query parameter is one or more expressions. Example: ?q=Deptno>=10 and <= 30;Loc!=NY
  
  Format: ?q=expression1;expression2
  
  You can use these queryable attributes to filter this collection resource using the q query parameter:
  

  • ContentDescription; string; Description about the content type.
  • ContentTypeId; integer; Unique identifier of the content type.
  • ContentTypeName; string; Name of the content type.
  • ContextName; string; Unique code representing the content type.
  • FreeFormFlag; boolean; Indicates whether the sections defined on the content type will be a free-form or based on a content item. If true, section defined on the content type will be free-from and can accept any value for the item. If false, it will be based on a content item catalog and the item value for the section must be predefined in the content item catalog.
• totalResults: boolean
  The resource collection representation will include the "estimated row count" when "?totalResults=true", otherwise the count is not included. The default value is "false".

Header Parameters

• Metadata-Context:
  If the REST API supports runtime customizations, the shape of the service may change during runtime. The REST client may isolate itself from these changes or choose to interact with the latest version of the API by specifying this header. For example: Metadata-Context:sandbox="TrackEmployeeFeature".
• REST-Framework-Version:
  The protocol version between a REST client and service. If the client does not specify this header in the request the server will pick a default version for the API.

There's no request body for this operation.
