Supported OData query options

The currently supported OData query options that can be used for query composition to customize responses are mentioned below.

  • $select

    : Use the $select query parameter to return a set of properties that are different than the default set for an individual resource or a collection of resources. With $select, you can specify a subset of the default properties.

    Example: In the example below, the query returns only two properties, Department name and Department status in the result.

    https://<Reporting endpoint base URL>/odata/departments?$select=DepartmentName,Status

  • $count

    Use the $count query parameter to retrieve the total count of matching resources.

    In the example below, the query returns a total count of roles in the system irrespective of any other filters.

    https://<Reporting endpoint Base URL>/odata/roles?$count=true

  • $top

    Use the $top query parameter to limits the number of records returned.

    In the example below, the query returns the top 10 records in the result.

    https://<Reporting endpoint Base URL>/odata/departments?$top=10

  • $skip

    Use the $skip query parameter to skips a specified number of records before returning results.

    In the example below, the query returns the records skipping the first 60 records in the result.

    https://<Reporting endpoint Base URL>/odata/departments?$skip=60

  • $skipToken

    Use the $skipToken query parameter to retrieve the next page of results from result sets that span multiple pages.

    Some requests return multiple pages of data due to server-side paging to limit the page size of the response. Reporting APIs use the $skipToken query parameter to reference subsequent pages of the result. The $skipToken parameter contains an opaque token that references the next page of results and is returned in the URL provided in the @odata.nextLink property in the response.

    For example, if you call the Roles API that have more than 1000 records in the result, then the response will return only 1000 records with @odata.nextLink property as shown below.

    "@odata.nextLink": "https://<Reporting endpoint Base URL>/odata/roles?$skipToken=29310"

    To fetch the next page of records, the value of the @odata.nextLink can be used as the endpoint URL which has a skipToken value.
