Grid

On the request level we have three main components for the grid: Column, ColumnConfiguration and ColumnData.

Column

A column is a single column in the grid. It has a name, type and a locale. It is used to get the data for the column. in addition, it has a configuration which can be used to configure the column, like the direction of the sorting

ColumnConfiguration

A column configuration represents how the column should behave, for example if it should be sort-able or editable. For the column to be exportable please make sure that it can be represented as a string.

ColumnData

A column data is the actual data for a column. It has a reference to the column and the actual data.

Filter

A filter is a way to filter the data in the grid. One Property of getting the grid data is the filter property. Here you can define page, pageSize and includeDescendants.

page is the page number of the data you want to get. pageSize is the number of items you want to get. includeDescendants is a boolean value to include the descendants of the current item.

ColumnFilter

It is also possible to filter the data by a column. This is done by adding a columnFilter to the filter property. A columnFilter has a reference to the column and the value you want to filter by. Some filters do not require a specific column, like the system.tag filter. This filters will be applied to the general search query.

Available filters are:

Type	filterValue	Options	key required
metadata.select	string		true
metadata.date	object of timestamp	from, to, or on	true
metadata.input	string		true
metadata.checkbox	boolean		true
metadata.textarea	string		true
metadata.object	integer	ID of the object	true
metadata.document	integer	ID fo the document	true
metadata.asset	integer	ID fo the asset	true
system.string	string	Wildcard search can be used	true
system.datetime	integer	from, to, or on	true
system.tag	object	considerChildTags, tags	false
system.pql	string	PQL Query	false
system.id	integer		false
system.integer	integer		true
system.fulltext	string		false

Examples:

Filter by a select column:

...
"columnFilters" [
  {
    "key": "selectKey",
    "type": "metadata.select",
    "filterValue": "selectValue"
  }
]
...

Filter by a date column:

...
"columnFilters" [
  {
    "key": "selectKey",
    "type": "metadata.select",
    "filterValue": {
      "from": 1719792000,
      "to": 1718792000
    }
  }
]
...

Filter by Tags:

...
"columnFilters" [
  {
    "type": "system.tag",
    "filterValue": {
      "considerChildTags": true,
      "tags": [1,2,3]
