This is a reminder that starting October 18th, 2022, we'll be adding new limits to the root Items query:
- The
idsargument is now required - You cannot return more than 100 items per query
This change will go into effect on Tuesday, October 18th, so please review your applications' API usage to prevent any loss of functionality.
We recently added a rate limit to this use case, so you may have already adjusted your code to account for this!
We will remove references to this feature in our docs, but if you spot a mention that we missed shoot us a message at [email protected].
Examples of unsupported queries
Queries without the ids argument:
query {
items (limit:1000) {
id
name
}
}Queries with more than 100 IDs:
query {
items (ids:[1, 2, 3, 4, 5...99, 100, 101, 102]) {
id
name
}
}How should I respond to this change?
You can adjust your queries in these main ways:
- Return items on a specific board only
- Nesting the items query inside Boards
- Looping through the boards on your account
- Query less than 100 items at a time
Return items on a specific board
You can return items only on a specific board, by ID. Here's an example:
query {
boards (ids:12345) {
id
name
items (limit:100) {
id
name
}
}
}Nesting the items query inside Boards
Queries without Items in the root will still work, so you can nest the items query within a boards query. Here's an example:
query {
boards (limit:10) {
items (limit:1000) {
id
name
}
}
}Looping through the boards on your account
If you are looking to return all items across your account, it is best practice to first query for the IDs of all the boards, and then get items a few boards at a time. For example:
First, query for the IDs of all the boards.
query {
boards (limit:50) {
id
}
}Second, query and loop through each board in the first query.
query {
boards (ids: 1234567890) {
items (limit:50) {
name
id
}
}
}Return less than 100 items at a time
Finally, you can continue to use the same query but restrict the query to a list of item IDs. Here's an example:
query {
items (ids: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5... 99]) {
name
column_values {
id
value
}
}
}
