The sortAsc and sortDesc query parameters let you sort the displayed items in the ascending or descending order. The displayed items are sorted by a specific field that is passed to the query as an argument.
For example, using the query below, you can get a list of backup servers connected to Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager sorted by the ‘Name’ field in the descending order:
