    sortHeaderParam:

      name: X-Sort
      schema:
        type: string
      description: Same as `sort` query parameter.

    sortQueryParam:
      in: query
      name: sort
      schema:
        type: string
      description: 'Order in which to return results. If a single column name is given (e.g. `pet`), results are placed in ascending order of values in that column. To get results in an order that was previously prepared manually in Grist, use the special `manualSort` column name. Multiple columns can be specified, separated by commas (e.g. `pet,age`). For descending order, prefix a column name with a `-` character (e.g. `pet,-age`). To include additional sorting options append them after a colon (e.g. `pet,-age:naturalSort;emptyLast,owner`). Available options are: `orderByChoice`, `naturalSort`, `emptyLast`. Without the `sort` parameter, the order of results is unspecified.'
      example: pet,-age
      required: false
    filterQueryParam:
      in: query
      name: filter
      schema:
        type: string
      description: 'This is a JSON object mapping column names to arrays of allowed values.  For example, to filter column `pet` for values `cat` and `dog`, the filter would be `{"pet": ["cat", "dog"]}`. JSON contains characters that are not safe to place in a URL, so it is important to url-encode them.  For this example, the url-encoding is `%7B%22pet%22%3A%20%5B%22cat%22%2C%20%22dog%22%5D%7D`. See https://rosettacode.org/wiki/URL_encoding for how to url-encode a string, or https://www.urlencoder.org/ to try some examples. Multiple columns can be filtered. For example the filter for `pet` being either `cat` or `dog`, AND `size` being either `tiny` or `outrageously small`, would be `{"pet": ["cat", "dog"], "size": ["tiny", "outrageously small"]}`.'
      example: '{"pet": ["cat", "dog"]}'

    limitQueryParam:
