You can apply filters, organise and choose the language and pagination using any query string parameter in SQL. Query string parameters appear after a question mark in the endpoint followed by the parameters and their values. In the query string, each parameter is listed one right after the other with an `AND` separating them. The order of the parameters does not matter.

| **Parameter** | **Type** | **Description** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| page | Integer | Define the pagination data for the returned objects |
| param1, param2... | String, Integer | Apply filters using any query string parameter in SQL |

| lang | String | Define the language in which you want to receive the response |

You can define the **pagination** data for the returned objects. The default page number is 0, otherwise you can optionally determine the page number.

e.g.

```
https://api.forcemanager.com/api/v4/documents?page=PAGE_NUMBER

 ```

You can **apply filters**.

e.g.

```
https://api.forcemanager.com/api/v4/documents?where= param1=value AND/OR param2=value2

 ```

You can filter Documents by `dateCreated` or `dateUpdated`, or `size` for example.

You can also **organise and view** the results for Documents in descendent order - at the top, the most recent results while the oldest results will be down the list.

e.g.

```
https://api.forcemanager.com/api/v4/documents?order=VALUE

 ```

In the request, and using query string parameters, you can also define the **language** in which you want to receive the response.

e.g.

```
https://api.forcemanager.com/api/v4/documents?lang=VALUE

 ```
