./list/layouts

The system permits to save and load "layouts". Layouts are not required if you simply want to query for data. A layout stores:

  • The fields to retrieve with a query
  • A name of the preset
  • The default rows per page
  • Other front end specific properties

The methods permit to:

  • Current user default layout. For example, a user may want to always render a specific set of fields with specific column widths.
  • System presets. Some lists propose predefined and commonly used layouts.
  • User presets. As user can save a list of layouts with name.

(GET) ./list/layouts
(GET) ./list/layouts/default
(PUT) ./list/layouts/userpresets
(PUT) ./list/layouts/default
