    Details

    QuickBaseQueryReader gets records from a QuickBase online database. You can use the component attributes to define which columns will be returned, how many records will be returned and how they will be sorted, and whether the QuickBase should return structured data. Records that meet the requirements are sent out through the connected output port.

    This component wraps the API_DoQuery HTTP interaction (http://www.quickbase.com/api-guide/do_query.html).

    Options

    Options attributes can be as follows:

    • skp-n

      Specifies n records from the beginning that should be skipped.

    • num-n

      Specifies n records that should be read.

    • sortorder-A

      Specifies the order of sorting as ascending.

    • sortorder-D

      Specifies the order of sorting as descending.

    • onlynew

      This parameter cannot be used by an anonymous user. The component reads only new records. The results can be different for different users.
