/members request

[starting from version: 2.8]

A request for all members of the field.

Request

{
  type: string,
  index: string,
  field: FieldObject,
  filter: FilterGroupObject,
  page: number,
  pageToken: string
}

Property/Type	Description
type String	The type of the request. In this case, it is `"members"`.
index String	The dataset identifier.
field FieldObject	The field whose members should be sent in the response.
filter FilterGroupObject	Filters that should be applied to members. `filter` is present in the request when multilevel hierarchies are configured in Flexmonster Pivot.
page Number	Used to load members by pages when their total number can be predicted. Indicates which page the server should send in the next response. The `page`'s value starts from `0`. This property is always present in the initial request and will be included in the next /members requests while the server responses contain the pageTotal and page properties. Ignore this property if you don't want to load members by pages.
pageToken String	Used to load members by pages when their total number cannot be predicted. Indicates which page the server should send in the next response. The `pageToken`'s value is equal to the nextPageToken sent in the previous server response. This property isn't present in the initial request but will be included in the next /members requests while the server responses contain the nextPageToken property.

Response

{
  members: MemberInfoObject[],
  sorted: boolean,
  pageTotal: number,
  page: number,
  nextPageToken: string
}

Property/Type	Description
members MemberInfoObject[]	Contains the field's members.
sorted Boolean	optional If `true`, the members' order from the response will be used as AZ order on the UI.
pageTotal Number	optional The total number of pages. Used to load members by pages when their total number can be predicted. Must be used with the page property. To load the next pages, the component will continue sending the /members requests while the `page` is less than the `pageTotal`. If the number of pages cannot be predicted — use the nextPageToken property.
page Number	optional The page number requested by the component in the page property. Used to load members by pages when their total number can be predicted. Must be used with the pageTotal property. To load the next pages, the component will continue sending the /members requests while the `page` is less than the `pageTotal`. If the number of pages cannot be predicted — use the nextPageToken property.
nextPageToken String	optional Token generated by the server for loading the next page. This token will be sent in the pageToken of the next /members request. Used to load members by pages when their total number cannot be predicted. To load the next pages, the component will continue sending the /members requests while the `nextPageToken` is present in the response. If the number of pages can be predicted — use the pageTotal and page properties.
