Content API

Answers to common questions about the Content API: pagination, custom fields, image URLs and exhibitor groups.

Pagination​

What is the maximum page size?​

The maximum pageSize is 200. We recommend a pageSize of 100.

See Limitations for the other limits that apply to the Content API.

What is a cursor, and how do I use it?​

A cursor points to a position in a list of results. When a query returns a list, you get a start cursor (startCursor), which marks the beginning of the current results, and an end cursor (endCursor), which marks the end. Use the end cursor to fetch the results that come after it.

For example, to get the first 3 results after the second person:

  1. Run the query with first: 2.
  2. Run the query again with first: 3, and after set to the end cursor returned by the first query.

Mutations​

How do I send several values for a multiple select custom field?​

Add one entry to customFields for each selected value. Every entry uses the same groupId and the SET_VALUE action.

{
  "customFields": [
    {
      "value": "test",
      "action": "SET_VALUE",
      "groupId": "RmllbGREZWZcwMw=="
    },
    {
      "value": "test1",
      "action": "SET_VALUE",
      "groupId": "RmllbGREZWZcwMw=="
    },
    {
      "value": "test2",
      "action": "SET_VALUE",
      "groupId": "RmllbGREZWZcwMw=="
    },
    {
      "value": "test3",
      "action": "SET_VALUE",
      "groupId": "RmllbGREZWZcwMw=="
    },
    {
      "value": "test4",
      "action": "SET_VALUE",
      "groupId": "RmllbGREZWZcwMw=="
    }
  ]
}

For more examples, see Custom fields.

Can I use a Google Drive link as an imageUrl?​

No. The URL must be publicly available and point directly to the image content. A Google Drive link loads a whole web page, not the image.

Exhibitors​

How do I assign different groups to exhibitors?​

Use the updateExhibitor mutation.

For example, if you have three types of exhibitors and created a group for each one in Swapcard (Exhibitor Premium, Exhibitor Enhance and Exhibitor), call updateExhibitor for each exhibitor to assign the matching group. See Exhibitors for updateExhibitor examples.
