Backend API: List all categories

Return a list of product categories.

Arguments

expandstring

Expand link fields and child collections by using the expand argument.

For example, expand=account would return a related customer account if one exists.

When the field represents a collection, you can specify the query limit.

For example, expand=variants:10 would return up to 10 records of the variants collection.

See expanding for more details.

fieldsstring

Returns only the specified fields in the result.

For example fields=name,slug would return only the fields name and slug in the response.

Supports nested object and array fields using dot-notation.

For example, items.product_id. The product id is always returned.

includeobject

Include one or more arbitrary queries in the response which are potentially related to the main query.

See including for more details.

limitint

Limit the number of records returned, ranging between 1 and 1000. Defaults to 15.

pageint

The page number of results to return given the specified or default limit.

searchstring

A text search is performed using the search argument. Searchable fields are defined by the model.

For example, search=red would return records containing the word "red" anywhere in the defined text fields.

See searching for more details.

sortstring

Expression to sort results by using a format similar to a SQL sort statement.

For example, sort=name asc would return records sorted by name ascending.

See sorting for more details.

whereobject

An object with criteria to filter the result.

For example, active=true would return records containing a field active with the value true.

It's also possible to use query operators, for example, $eq, $ne, $gt, and more.

See querying for more details.
