Pagination, Filtering, Sorting, and Includes
Control list responses from the public API.
List endpoints return records in a data array and pagination details in
meta.
Pagination
Use:
pagefor the current page. Invalid or missing values default to1.per_pagefor page size. Invalid or missing values default to25.
per_page is clamped between 1 and 100.
Example:
curl "$AGILED_API_BASE_URL/public/v1/contacts?page=2&per_page=50" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $AGILED_API_TOKEN"Meta Shape
List responses include:
{
"meta": {
"current_page": 1,
"last_page": 3,
"per_page": 25,
"total": 68
}
}Sorting
Use:
sort_bysort_direction=ascsort_direction=desc
If a sort field is not supported for that resource, the endpoint falls back to the resource default.
Includes
Some resources support include for related records. Pass comma-separated
values:
curl "$AGILED_API_BASE_URL/public/v1/contacts?include=accounts,assigned_user" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $AGILED_API_TOKEN"Unsupported include values are ignored.
Common Filters
Available filters depend on the resource. Examples include:
- Contacts:
email,full_name,created_after,updated_after - Accounts:
name,email - Deals:
name,status - Tickets:
subject,status,priority,account_id,contact_id - Projects:
name,status - Tasks:
title,status,project_id - Invoices:
invoice_number,status - Products:
search,type,category_id,is_active - Files:
search,file_type,parent_id,uploader_id
Sync Job Pattern
For incremental syncs, page through results with a stable sort and store the
last successfully processed timestamp or cursor in your integration. Start with
small pages while testing, then raise per_page only after error handling and
retry behavior are proven.
When using updated_after, allow a small overlap window and deduplicate by
record ID. This prevents missing records when updates happen during a running
sync.
Include Strategy
Use includes for screens, dashboards, or one-off lookups where related context improves the response. For bulk sync, start without includes and fetch related records only when needed.
Large include payloads make retries and logs harder to inspect. Keep the sync payload as small as possible until you know which relationships the downstream system truly needs.
