Orderby Parameter
The orderby query parameter is used to sort items in a resource collection to be returned in a response.
The parameter accepts the array data type. To sort a resource collection use the orderby query parameter in the following format:
| GET https://<hostname>:<port>/api/<version>/Endpoint?orderby=[{"property":"<property>","direction":"<direction>"}] | 
where:
- <property> is a resource property name.
- <direction> is a direction specifier.
The Veeam Backup for GCP REST API accepts the following direction specifiers:
| Direction Specifier | Description | 
|---|---|
| ASC | Defines the ascending order of the resource collection representation. | 
| DESC | Defines the descending order of the resource collection representation. | 
Examples
- To sort plans by their state, send the following request:
| GET https://127.0.0.1:13140/api/2.0/Plans?orderby=[{"property":"state","direction":"ASC"}] | 
- To sort recovery locations by their type and name, send the following request:
| GET https://127.0.0.1:13140/api/2.0/RecoveryLocations?orderby=[{"property":"type","direction":"ASC"},{"property":"name","direction":"ASC"}] |
