Properties

Name	Type	Description
id	stringnull	ID of an existing saved query to update. Omit (or leave null) to create a new query; supply the existing ID to update it in place.
name	string	Display name of the query. Required.
description	stringnull	Optional free-text description of the query.
query_view_id	string	ID of the query view the query runs against. Required. Stable across environments, so safe to embed in caller code.
select_fields	array	Output (Select) fields. Required (at least one).
filter_fields	arraynull	Filter fields (WHERE-clause predicates).
sort_fields	arraynull	Sort fields (ORDER BY).
group_filter_fields	arraynull	Group-filter fields (HAVING-clause predicates over aggregates).
folder_id	stringnull	Folder to file the saved query under.
site_id	stringnull	Site to scope the saved query to.
category_id	stringnull	Category to file the saved query under.
default_data_form_id	stringnull	Default data form to open results in.
others_can_modify	booleannull	When true, other users may modify this saved query.
mobilize	booleannull	When true, the query is available on mobile. Omitting this field leaves mobile availability unchanged on update; on create, an omitted value defaults to false.
is_favorite	booleannull	When true, adds the query to the caller's favorites. False or omitted removes it from favorites; favorite status is reasserted on every save, so it must be resent on every update to persist.
suppress_duplicate_rows	booleannull	Suppress duplicate full rows in the query's output.
run_security_level	stringnull	Run-permission security level. AppFx security-level enum name, passed through verbatim (e.g. "SelectedRoles"). Pair with permissioned_run_roles.
edit_security_level	stringnull	Edit-permission security level. AppFx security-level enum name, passed through verbatim (e.g. "SelectedRoles"). Pair with permissioned_edit_roles.
permissioned_run_roles	arraynull	System roles granted or denied Run permission. Used when run_security_level restricts run access to selected roles.
permissioned_edit_roles	arraynull	System roles granted or denied Edit permission. Used when edit_security_level restricts edit access to selected roles.
