/subject-sources

Collection of subject-source items.

GET /subject-sources

Return a list of subject sources

GET /subject-sources
Query Parameters
  • query: (string)

    A query expressed as a CQL string (see dev.folio.org/reference/glossary#cql) using valid searchable fields. The first example below shows the general form of a full CQL query, but those fields might not be relevant in this context.

    with valid searchable fields

    Example:

    (username=="ab*" or personal.firstName=="ab*" or personal.lastName=="ab*") and active=="true" sortby personal.lastName personal.firstName barcode
    
    name=aaa
    
  • totalRecords: (string - default: auto - pattern: exact|estimated|none|auto)

    How to calculate the totalRecords property. "exact" for the correct number, "estimated" for an estimation, "auto" to automatically select "exact" or "estimated", "none" for suppressing the totalRecords property. For details see https://github.com/folio-org/raml-module-builder#estimated-totalrecords

    Example:

    none
  • offset: (integer - default: 0 - minimum: 0 - maximum: 2147483647)

    Skip over a number of elements by specifying an offset value for the query

    Example:

    0
  • limit: (integer - default: 10 - minimum: 0 - maximum: 2147483647)

    Limit the number of elements returned in the response. Using limit=0 will return totalRecords with the exact value. For details about totalRecords see https://github.com/folio-org/raml-module-builder#estimated-totalrecords

    Example:

    10
