Can't use "where" condition in REST request retrieving distinct values

[Illya Stepanov]

Hello - can you show a sample of your collection?

Hi,
here's an example CSV line:

_id:string,"acl:object","UIAA:string","French:string","Fontainebleau:string","Colour:string","Name:string","Line:string","Date:string","RouteSetter:string","Sector:string","Area:string"
5224a995e4b0cfb71e4bbee6,"","VII","6b ","","yellow","Jewel in the Crown ","86","2013-08-09","Elch ","Nord-Turm","Kletterhalle Wien"

Hello! It's a bug unfortunately. As a workaround please use the following Request structure:

Hi Marina,
thanks for pointing out the workaround.
Still, this solution does not allow for a custom condition, where e.g. rows are only filtered if "name" contains certain values(or any non-null value).
For now I guess the only way to build such a "where"-condition is to implement it in javascript (calling the REST service) directly?

..can you tell when this bug will be fixed?

[maxkatz]

It's already fixed.. we just need to push the fix to production. We'll try to do it as soon as possible.

[Wolfgang Dietersdorfer]

That's great, thanks.
It will make appery.io an even better platform to develop mobile app prototypes.
Excellent work, by the way!

Hi Marina,
The GUI doesn't show me the "Add level" button on the "Request" form of my service(as in your screenshot).
Do I have to do anything special?

[Wolfgang Dietersdorfer]

Please ignore my previous post. It's working as you describe it.
I had my service configured with a method of "get" instead of "post"

Hi Marina,
how would I use this approach to retrieve a collection(rathen than a list of distinct values from a collection)?
I can't figure out how to add a level to the "where" parameter using the "get" method.
Using the "post" method results in a request to create an entry in the collection instead of tretrieving the collection..
