When you want to display how many records your collection has without displaying them. You can pass filter and paging parameters to filter records upfront and get the amount of filtered records.
You register employees from when to when s/he wants to travel, in which country, and you can attach documents related to the business trip. You can use our templates or create collections and taxonomies manually by following our instructions.
Let's say you have some records inserted in the "Business Trips" collection.
Let's get all the amount of records in the collection.
Let's filter some records by date ranges.
We can pass the date range as well to find out trips from the last 30 days.
And last one example. Let's find all employee business trips that are planned for the future.
We assume that:
We have a country we are interested in - taxonomy term Id. E.g., We can fetch all terms from the taxonomy called countries and find the term Id of France.
We have an employee Id - employee
We have a date from, the Unix time
.NET
With any REST client
GET
POST
Create Employees collection and other related taxonomies from the template.
Create a collection of "Business Trips." You can do it manually or just copy-paste JSON and UI schemas into CodeMash Dashboard. The schema itself can be found here.
Please remember you need to initialize Repo first to avoid getting a NullReference exception. See how you can do that by following .
Let's find business trips that will start in 10 days. We store the "From" data field in CodeMash as a date field, which converts at the end as a UNIX timestamp. See more about .
of how you can leverage filters

Sometimes it's useful to have the capability to get records amount in the collection without calling the find function. You can pass filter and paging parameters to filter records upfront and get the amount of filtered records. https://docs.codemash.io/api/database/collections/count
Collection name - unique, lowercased, collection name without whitespace. E.g., if your collection title you have entered in the CodeMash dashboard is "Business Trips" then collection name would be "business-trips".
The CodeMash API version used to fetch data from the API. If not specified, the last version will be used. E.g.: v2
Filter cannot be passed as query string, use POST method instead.
A limit on the number of objects to be returned, between 1 and 100.
The number of records to skip before counting
