Query Format

Query Format

A simple query has the following form:

FIND <objectType> WHERE <expression>
      

where <objectType> is the type of object you want to retrieve. Supported values are:

  • Product
  • Configuration
  • Promotion
  • PriceList
  • Promotion
  • PriceListAssignment
  • TaxJurisdiction
  • TaxCode
  • PaymentGateway
  • Warehouse
  • Store
  • Customer
  • CustomerProfileAttribute
  • CmUser
  • UserRole
  • Catalog
  • Category
  • GiftCertificate
  • ShippingRegion
  • ShippingServiceLevel
  • SavedCondition
  • CmImportJob
    Note: The object type must match the exporter type specified in the export configuration file.

<expression> specifies the criteria that determines which objects to retrieve. An expression has the following form:

<field> <operator> <value>
            

where <field> is the field that contains the values you want to compare. A field represents a common characteristic of the object. For example, if you want to look for products of a specific brand, you would include the BrandCode field in your query. The supported fields are described in Supported Fields further in this appendix. Not all object types have supported fields.

<operator> is the operator you are using to perform the comparison.

<value> is the literal value you want to compare to the field values.
Note: The WHERE clause is optional. If omitted, all products are matched.

For example, the following query matches the product whose code is 10030205:

FIND Product WHERE ProductCode = '10030205'
      

In addition to searching for field values, you can also search for attribute values on products and categories. To search for a value in an attribute, the expression has the following form:

AttributeName{<attribute_name>} <operator> <value>
      

where <attribute_name> is the name of a product attribute.

For example, the following query matches all products that have the Header / Model attribute set to MX:

FIND Product WHERE AttributeName{Header / Model} = 'MX'
      

To search for a value in a product SKU attribute, use SkuAttributeName. For example, the following query matches all products that have the Header / Model SKU attribute set to MX:

FIND Product WHERE SkuAttributeName{Header / Model} = 'MX'
      
Note: Data policies or customer consents do not support any query format. You cannot import or export a specific customer consent or data policy.
