The Data Stream can be sorted by any column in ascending or descending order. Sorting by multiple columns at once is also possible.

Overview

The Fusionbase API allows users to sort data within a stream using the query_parameters parameter in the request. This feature enables efficient organization and retrieval of data based on specific sorting criteria.

Sorting Data in a Stream

Request Structure

To sort data in a stream, include the query_parameters parameter in your GET request to /api/v2/stream/data/{STREAM_ID}. This parameter accepts JSON-formatted sorting instructions.

Sorting Properties

The query_parameters JSON object can contain the following properties related to sorting:

  • sort_keys: A list of column names by which the data should be sorted. These keys should correspond to columns in the data stream.

  • sort_order: Specifies the sorting order for each key in sort_keys. The available options are "asc" for ascending order and "desc" for descending order.

Multiple Sorting Keys

You can specify multiple sort keys in the sort_keys list. The data will be sorted based on the order of keys provided. The corresponding sort_order list should match the length of sort_keys to specify the sorting order for each key.

Example

Consider a data stream with columns such as fb_datetime, price, and product_name. To sort the data first by fb_datetime in ascending order and then by price in descending order, structure your request as follows:

/api/v2/stream/data/{STREAM_ID}?query_parameters={"sort_keys": ["fb_datetime", "price"], "sort_order": ["asc", "desc"]}&format=json

Note

  • The sorting functionality is dependent on the structure of the data stream.

  • Ensure that the column names used in sort_keys are valid and present in the data stream.

  • The order of elements in sort_keys and sort_order is significant and should correspond to each other.

Error Handling

If invalid column names are used or if there's a mismatch in the length of sort_keys and sort_order, the API might return an error response.
