Sorting

All endpoints are sorted by the id column in ascending order by default (oldest first). You can override this by including a _sort with the column you want to sort by in the request. You can sort on all columns in the parent object only. You cannot sort on columns in nested objects, so if a game contains a tags object you cannot sort on the tag name column, but you can sort by the games name since the games name resides in the parent object.

NOTE: Some endpoints like Get Mods have special sort columns like popular, downloads, rating and subscribers which are documented alongside the filters.

_sort (Sort)

v1/games?_sort=name

Sort by a column, in ascending or descending order.

  • ?_sort=name - Sort name in ascending order

  • ?_sort=-name - Sort name in descending order (by prepending a -)
