id_greater_than |
integer |
<any_positive_integer> |
Searches for lifecycle histories with IDs greater than the specified integer |
id_less_than |
integer |
<any_positive_integer> |
Searches for lifecycle histories with IDs less than the specified integer |
Manipulating the Result Set
Since query
result sets are limited to 200 results each, the results returned may not include all the lifecycle histories matched by the query. To retrieve the remaining results, the following criteria can be used to navigate through the result set.
Parameter |
Datatype |
Options |
Description |
limit |
integer |
<any_positive_integer> |
Specifies the number of results to be returned. Default value: 200 . Note: This number cannot be larger than 200. If a number larger than 200 is specified, 200 will be used |
offset |
integer |
<any_positive_integer> |
Specifies the first matching lifecycle history (according to the specified sorting order) to be returned in the query response. The first offset matching lifecycle history will be omitted from the response. Default value: 0 . Example: Specifying offset=10 will return the results starting with the 11th lifecycle history matched by the provided criteria |
sort_by |
string |
created_at, id |
Specifies the field that should be used to sort the results of the query. See Supported Sorting Options for more details. |
sort_order |
string |
ascending, descending |
Specifies the ordering to be used when sorting the results of the query. The default value varies based on the value of the sort_by parameter. See Supporting Sorting Options for more details |
Supported Sorting Options
The ordering of the results returned by a query
request can be changed by specifying sort_by
and sort_order
parameters. Any of the following values are valid when specifying the sort_by
parameter. For a complete list of fields involved in lifecycle history queries, see Lifecycle History in Object Field References.
Value |

Description |
created_at |
ascending |
Specifies that the query results should be sorted by the Lifecycle Histories' created_at timestamps |
id |
ascending |
Specifies that the query results should be sorted by the Lifecycle Histories' id fields |
