Upply API Sorting and Filtering

The Upply API allows clients to sort and filter API responses to help find the data they need more quickly and easily.

Sorting

Sorting in the Upply API is controlled by a query parameter called sort. The sort parameter specifies the field or fields to sort on, and the direction of the sort (ascending or descending).

For example, to sort a list of shipments by the created_at field in descending order, you would set the sort parameter to created_at.desc. To sort by multiple fields, separate the fields with a comma (,). For example, to sort by created_at in descending order, then by origin_city in ascending order, you would set the sort parameter to created_at.desc,origin_city.asc.

Filtering

Filtering in the Upply API is controlled by query parameters called filter. The filter parameter allows clients to specify one or more conditions that the data must meet to be included in the response.

For example, to retrieve all shipments that have an origin city of "Paris", you would set the filter parameter to origin_city=Paris. To filter by multiple conditions, separate the conditions with an ampersand (&). For example, to retrieve all shipments that have an origin city of "Paris" and a destination country of "Spain", you would set the filter parameter to origin_city=Paris&destination_country=Spain.

Sorting and Filtering Best Practices

We recommend that clients follow these best practices when using sorting and filtering in the Upply API:

• Use sorting and filtering to help find the data you need more quickly and easily.
• Use the sort and filter parameters consistently across all API requests to ensure consistent behavior.
• Be aware of any limitations or restrictions on the fields that can be sorted or filtered.
• Use appropriate syntax and encoding for special characters and values in sort and filter parameters.
