List
Retrieves a paginated list of objects for the specified content type. Each
object includes a content type's fields and are defined by the default list
layout, unless a different layout is specified using layout.
The endpoint supports pagination, filtering, and sorting, allowing clients to retrieve specific subsets of objects and control the order in which results are returned.
Because the structure of each object depends on the selected list layout and
content type, the fields within the data array may vary between requests.
Endpoint
Replace {contentType} with route of the content type you want to retrieve.
Example:
Note: The available content types depend on the API configuration.
Request Body
The endpoint accepts a JSON object containing pagination settings, an optional layout identifier, optional filters, and optional sorting instructions.
Example Request
{
"page": 1,
"pageSize": 10,
"layout": 1,
"filters": [],
"ordering": {
"field": "id",
"order": "asc"
}
}
Request Parameters
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
page |
integer | Yes | The page number to retrieve. Page numbering starts at 1. |
pageSize |
integer | Yes | The maximum number of objects to return per page. |
layout |
integer | No | The ID of the list layout that determines which fields are included in each returned object. If omitted, the default list layout is used. |
filters |
array | No | A list of filter criteria used to restrict the results. Pass an empty array ([]) when no filtering is required. |
ordering |
object | No | Defines the field and direction used to sort the results. |
Filtering
filters
The optional filters array allows you to narrow the result set by applying
one or more filter criteria.
Each filter contains the following properties:
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
field |
string | Yes | The name of the field within the object to filter, such as name, category, or created_at. |
filter |
string | Yes | The filter operator to apply. Supported operators are listed below. |
value |
varies | Yes | The value or values used by the filter. The expected type depends on the field and operator. |
The field property refers to the name of a field in the object, not the
filter operator or its data type. For example, use created_at to filter
objects by their creation timestamp.
The filter property uses PrimeVue filter operators.
Supported Filter Operators

|---|---|
CONTAINS |
Matches values containing the specified text. |
STARTS_WITH |
Matches values that start with the specified text. |
ENDS_WITH |
Matches values that end with the specified text. |

}
]
}
Ordering
The optional ordering object specifies how the returned objects should be
sorted.
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
ordering.field |
string | No | The name of the field used to sort the results, such as id. |
ordering.order |
string | No | The sort direction: asc for ascending or desc for descending order. |
Example: Sort by ID in ascending order
Example: Sort by ID in descending order
Note: If sorting is omitted, the default ordering is determined by the API implementation.
Response
A successful request returns a 200 OK status code and a JSON response
containing the requested objects and pagination metadata.
Status: 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
Example Response
The data array contains the objects returned for the requested page. The
pagination object provides information about the current page and the overall
result set.
When matching objects are available, the data array contains their details.
If no objects match the request, the array may be empty.
Response Fields
Top-Level Fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
data |
array | The list of objects returned for the current page. The fields on each object depend on the content type and selected list layout. |
pagination |
object | Metadata describing the current page and the total number of matching objects. |
Pagination Fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
pagination.page |
integer | The page number returned by the request. |
pagination.pageSize |
integer | The requested page size. |
pagination.total |
integer | The total number of matching objects across all pages. |
pagination.totalPages |
integer | The total number of pages available for the result set at the specified page size. |
Understanding Pagination
The pagination metadata can be used to determine whether additional requests are required to retrieve the complete result set.
For example:
This indicates that there are 25 matching objects in total, with up to 10 objects per page. The complete result set can therefore be retrieved across three pages.
To retrieve the next page, submit another request with page set to 2,
keeping the other request parameters consistent where appropriate.
Data Object
Each object returned in the data array contains a set of standard system
fields. Additional fields may be included depending on the requested content
type and selected list layout.
Standard Fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
id |
integer | The unique identifier of the object. |
created_at |
string | The date and time when the object was created. |
updated_at |
string | The date and time when the object was last updated. |
deleted_at |
string or null |
The date and time when the object was deleted, or null if the object has not been deleted. |
author_id |
integer | The identifier of the author who created the object. |
group_id |
integer | The identifier of the group to which the object belongs. |
Timestamps are represented as ISO 8601 strings. For example,
2026-10-12T09:00:00Z represents a timestamp in UTC.
Additional Fields
Depending on the selected list layout and content type, an object may contain additional fields beyond the standard system fields.
For example, an article object might include fields such as a title or body, while another content type may expose a different set of properties.
The exact fields, types, and values of these additional properties are determined by the relevant content type and layout configuration.
Example Object
The following example shows an object containing only the standard system fields, with no additional layout-specific fields.
{
"id": 1,
"created_at": "2026-10-12T09:00:00Z",
"updated_at": "2026-10-12T09:00:00Z",
"deleted_at": null,
"author_id": 1,
"group_id": 1
}
Complete Example
The following example retrieves the first page of objects, requests up to 10
objects, uses layout 1, filters by category and name, and sorts the results
by ID in ascending order.
Request
curl -X POST "https://api.example.com/{contentType}" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
-d '{
"page": 1,
"pageSize": 10,
"layout": 1,
"filters": [
{
"field": "category",
"filter": "EQUALS",
"value": 1
},
{
"field": "name",
"filter": "CONTAINS",
"value": "de"
}
],
"ordering": {
"field": "id",
"order": "asc"
}
}'
Replace the following placeholders before sending the request:
{contentType}— The content type to retrieve, such asarticles, if supported by the API.YOUR_TOKEN— A valid bearer authentication token.
Response
{
"data": [
{
"id": 1,
"name": "Desk",
"category": 3,
"created_at": "2026-10-12T09:00:00Z",
"updated_at": "2026-10-12T09:00:00Z",
"deleted_at": null,
"author_id": 1,
"group_id": 1
}
],
"pagination": {
"page": 1,
"pageSize": 10,
"total": 1,
"totalPages": 1
}
}
Notes
- Content type determines the endpoint. Replace
{contentType}with the specific content type you want to query. - Layout determines the returned fields. The default list layout is used
unless a different
layoutis specified. - Pagination applies to the result set. Use
pageandpageSizeto retrieve results in manageable batches. - Filtering is optional. Use the documented filter operators to narrow
results, or pass an empty
filtersarray when no additional filtering is required. - Filter fields reference object properties. For example, use
created_atto filter by creation timestamp. - Sorting is optional. Use
orderingto request a specific field and sort direction. - Response objects may vary. Do not assume that all content types or layouts return identical object structures.
- Timestamps use ISO 8601 formatting. Date and time values are returned as
strings, while
deleted_atmay benull.
