Search Groups

Version 4.0.24.6 (latest)

Search groups

Returns all group records that match the given search criteria.

If multiple search params are given and filter_or is FALSE or not specified, search params are combined in a logical AND operation. Only rows that match all search param criteria will be returned.

If filter_or is TRUE, multiple search params are combined in a logical OR operation. Results will include rows that match any of the search criteria.

String search params use case-insensitive matching. String search params can contain % and '_' as SQL LIKE pattern match wildcard expressions. example="dan%" will match "danger" and "Danzig" but not "David" example="D_m%" will match "Damage" and "dump"

Integer search params can accept a single value or a comma separated list of values. The multiple values will be combined under a logical OR operation - results will match at least one of the given values.

Most search params can accept "IS NULL" and "NOT NULL" as special expressions to match or exclude (respectively) rows where the column is null.

Boolean search params accept only "true" and "false" as values.
