This is the correct response for the service to get a count:

Is that what you have? I think looking at your mapping, the 'count' is on the same level as $.

hi

I'm facing a similar challenge to get count back from a query.
I'm trying to implement pagination and need count of my query results.

The pagination example
http://devcenter.appery.io/tutorials/...

states 'For example: run a service to count how many objects there are.'

How do I implement this ?

Further to this if I add a count parameter to the Request I only get the count variable and not the Query set itself.

I would like to get the count of my query to use in pagination and the results as well to render on my page.

Hi Shawn,

There should be the following service response if you use a request parameter count=1.

If I add count = 1 in the request parameters of the main query then I only get the count variable but not the result set

Do I need to add a new service only for the count ?

Hi Shown,

If the response is "count = 1" you'll get in return only count the items will not be included.
