Query parameters
The following parameters can be used with queries.
Parameter Details approver This parameter is used to query items with a specific approver. A user ID must be specified when using this parameter. For example:
/query?approver=useridauthoringtemplateid This parameter is used to query items with a specific authoring template ID. For example:

/query?createdafter=2011-01-11T11:43:29.0150Zcreatedbefore This parameter is used to query items created before a specific date and time. For example:

/query?creator=uid=WCMUT_Editor_A,o=defaultWIMFileBasedRealmdateformat This parameter is used to define the date format of query parameters. For example:
/query?dateformat=mm-dd-yyyy&createdbefore=12-31-2011If a date format not specified, then the default format yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssz is used.depth This parameter is used with the parentid and is used to define whether to search for all descendants of a parent, or just the immediate children of a parent item. For example, to query only the immediate children of an item, we add &depth=CHILDREN to the query:
/query?parentid=wcmrest:18cfc80c-a490-4d75-9057-fed3db89de53&depth=CHILDRENTo query all descendants of an item, we add &depth=DESCENDANTS to the query::
/query?parentid=wcmrest:18cfc80c-a490-4d75-9057-fed3db89de53&depth=DESCENDANTSexpireafter This parameter is used to query items that have expired after a specific date and time. For example:
/query?expireafter=2011-01-11T11:43:29.0150Zexpirebefore This parameter is used to query items that were expired before a specific date and time. For example:
/query?expirebefore=2011-01-11T11:43:29.0150Zid This parameter is used to query an item with a specific ID. For example:
/query?id=wcmrest:18cfc80c-a490-4d75-9057-fed3db89de53keyword This parameter is used to query items that are profiled with a specific keyword. For example:
/query?keyword=keywordValuelastmodifiedafter This parameter is used to query items that were last modified after a specific date and time. For example:
/query?lastmodifiedafter=2011-01-11T11:43:29.0150Zlastmodifiedbefore This parameter is used to query items that were last modified before a specific date and time. For example:
/query?lastmodifiedbefore=2011-01-11T11:43:29.0150Zlastmodifier This parameter is used to query items that were last modified by a specific user. A user UID must be specified when using this parameter. For example:
/query?lastmodifier=uid=WCMUT_Editor_A,o=defaultWIMFileBasedRealmlibraryid This parameter is used to query items that are stored in a specific library. For example:
/query?libraryid=uid=WCMUT_Editor_A,o=defaultWIMFileBasedRealmnamelike This parameter is used as a wildcard query for items with names like the specified namelike parameter. For example:
/query?namelike=nameApproxValue%name This parameter is used to query an item with a specific name. For example:
/query?name=nameValueowner This parameter is used to query items with a specific owner. A user UID must be specified when using this parameter. For example:
/query?owner=uid=WCMUT_Editor_A,o=defaultWIMFileBasedRealmpagesize This parameter is used to restrict the number of items returned by a query to a set number. It can be used with the page parameter to return specific pages of results. For example, to restrict the number of queries to be returned to 5:
/query?type=PresentationTemplate&pagesize=5page This parameter is used with the pagesize parameter to define what set of results to display. For example, if pagesize is set to 5, and the page parameter is set to 2, then only results 6 to 10 will be displayed. For example:
/query?type=PresentationTemplate&pagesize=5&page=2parentid This parameter is used to query items that are the children of a specific parent item. For example:
/query?parentid=wcmrest:18cfc80c-a490-4d75-9057-fed3db89de53We can use the depth parameter to define whether to search for all descendants of a parent, or just the immediate children of a parent item.
projectid This parameter is used to query items that are linked to a specific project. For example:
/query?projectid=wcmrest:18cfc80c-a490-4d75-9057-fed3db89de53projectstate This parameter is used to query items that are linked to a project with a specific state. The following values can be used with this parameter:
- ACTIVE
- SYNDICATING
- PENDING
- PUBLISHING
- PUBLISHED
- PUBLISHED_FAILED
For example, to query items linked to projects with a state of "active" you would use the following query:
/query?projectstate=ACTIVEpublishafter This parameter is used to query items that have been published after a specific date and time. For example:
/query?publishafter=2011-01-11T11:43:29.0150Zpublishbefore This parameter is used to query items that were published before a specific date and time. For example:
/query?publishbefore=2011-01-11T11:43:29.0150Zsort The sort parameter is appended to queries to determine how query results are sorted. The following values can be used with the sort parameter.
- author
- created
- modified
- name
- title
- parents
The values _ascending or _descending are appended to the query to determine sort order.
For example, to sort a presentation template query in ascending order of creation, you would use:
/query?type=PresentationTemplate&sort=created_ascendingTo sort a presentation template query in descending order of creation, you would use:
/query?type=PresentationTemplate&sort=created_descendingIf _ascending or _descending are not specified, the results as displayed in ascending order.state This parameter is used to query items that are in a specific state. The following values can be used with this parameter:
- DRAFT
- PUBLISHED
- EXPIRED
For example:
/query?state=PUBLISHEDtitlelike This parameter is used as a wildcard query for items with titles like the specified titlelike parameter. For example:
/query?titlelike=nameApproxValue%title This parameter is used to query an item with a specific title. For example:
/query?title=titleValuetype This parameter is used to query items of a specific item type. For example, to query a list of components::
/query?type=LibraryHTMLComponentworkflowid This parameter is used to query items that use a specific workflow. For example:
/query?workflowid=wcmrest:8d25860b-7a5c-4015-9cd5-bdcc60ce14bbworkflowstageid This parameter is used to query items that are currently active within a specific workflow stage. For example:
/query?workflowstageid=wcmrest:18cfc80c-a490-4d75-9057-fed3db89de53
Use multiple parameters
- Multiple instances of the same parameter type in a query can only be specified as "OR" queries, with the following exceptions:
- Only one value allowed
- Only one instance of the following parameters can be used in a single query. If multiple instances are used, only the first instance is used by the query:
- dateformat
- depth
- page
- pagesize
- "AND" queries allowed
- The following queries can be used as "AND" queries:
- createdafter
- createdbefore
- expireafter
- expirebefore
- lastmodifiedafter
- lastmodifiedbefore
- publishafter
- publishbefore
- Sort values
- Sort values are comma separated. For example:
?sort=created_ascending,title_descending
