Field | Type | Description |
object_type | string | "datastores" |
is_valid | true/false | true if this contains at least one datastore |
prepended | list of datastores | datastores that will be listed at the beginning of the items list |

items | list of datastores | The full list of datastores in the proper order and uniqueness, including prepended, fetched, and appended datastores |
size | number | The total number of items in the list of items, including prepended, fetched, and appended datastores |
limit | number | The maximum number of datastores that could have been fetched dynamically from the database |
start | number | The 1-based index of the first datastore that was (or would have been) dynamically fetched from the database |
page | number | The 1-based index of the first "page" of datastores that could have been fetched dynamically from the database - as determined by the start and limit properties |
total_count | number | The total number of datastores in the database that matched the provided filter parameters when fetching the list of fetched datastores |
total_pages | number | The total number of "pages" of results that matched the provided filter parameters when fetching the list of fetched datastores - as determined by the total_count and limit properties |
output | html | The default output that the datastores will produce when it is output directly to the template - using the "output_in_list" property of each datastore in the items list |
Fetch a single datastore.
{% datastore[var|set|assign] new_variable_nameSpecify a variable name in order to save the datastore to a variable. If not specified the datastore will be output to the template instead.

Fetch a list of datastores.

All prepended input will be returned in the same order that it is input.append:datastore|datastores|guid|stringAppend the specified datastores after the fetched results. All appended input will be returned in the same order that it is input.exclude:datastore|datastores|guid|stringPrevent the specified datastores from being included in the fetched results. Has no affect on prepended and appended datastoresexclude_prepended:trueSpecifically exclude all prepended datastores from the fetched results. If "unique:true" is specified this is the default behavior, although you may also specify "exclude_prepended:false" to allow any prepended items to be fetched along with other results anyway.exclude_appended:trueSpecifically exclude all appended datastores from the fetched results. This is false by default - even if "unique:true" is specified - so that results are returned in the proper order.unique:trueIf set to true, each of the resulting lists (prepended, fetched, appended, and items) will be unique, although there may be duplicates between the prepended, fetched, and appended lists. The "items" list will include objects in the order in which they appear - with prepended items first, then fetched items, then appended items.max_size:25If specified, then the "items" list will only include up to the specified number of datastores. The "limit" may be automatically lowered to only fetch the maximum number of datastores that will be included in "items" following prepended items. Note that this may also impact both the "page and "total_pages" values. In order to use pagination with a list loaded using "max_size" use "start" instead of "page" and "limit".filter:stringOnly return datastores that match the given string filterhas_url:booleanFilter results to only return datastores for which has_url exactly matches the specified value.template:template|templates|guid|stringOnly return datastores with one of these templatesinclude_in_search:booleanFilter results to only return datastores for which include_in_search exactly matches the specified value.site_domain_guid:guidFilter results to only return datastores for which site_domain_guid exactly matches the specified value.ssl_mode:stringFilter results to only return datastores for which ssl_mode exactly matches the specified value.folder:folder|folders|guid|stringOnly return datastores with one of these foldersdate_created_start:datetimeFilter results to return datastores for which date_created is greater than or equal to date_created_start.date_created_end:datetimeFilter results to return datastores for which date_created is less than or equal to date_created_end.start:1Set the 1-based index of the first datastore to fetch.page:1Automatically calculate the first datastore to fetch based on both of the "limit" and the 1-based "page" value. Ignored if "start" is set.limit:25Defines the maximum number of datastores to be fetched. If not included, this will default to 10. Note that if "max_size" is specified then "limit" may be automatically lowered even if specified.sort_by:"date_created"Specify which field to sort the fetched results by. Has no affect on prepended or appended datastores.
By default results will be sorted by relevance if there is a filter string and date_created (the date the item was first published) desc (newest first) if not.
Other Options include:
- Name
- Title
- URL
- BrowserTitle
- relevance (based on which field matches the given filter and where in the field the match is found. When sorting by relevance sort_direction is irrelevant)
- date_created (Equivalent to the date you first published this item. Unpublishing and republishing the item resets date_created to the current date)
- random (By default using random sorting prevents fast caching of the page. Setting "cache_random:true" overrides this behavior and allows the page to be fast-cached anyway)
sort_direction:"desc"Specify whether the fetched results should be sorted in asc (ascending) or desc (descending) order.%}
If you do not include any filters or inputs other than prepended items, appended items, or max_size, then no additional items will be fetched. If you wish to fetch all items you must include at least one additional input (ie: "start:1")
