How to limit the -findall curl call result to certain number in FileMaker's curl call

I know the -findall curl call parameter for FileMaker server will return all the rows in that specific database, however, for testing purpose, I just want to show for maybe, three.

I am aware sql has command of LIMIT, but how a curl command for FM is handling this same scenario?

In this case, -find is not an option for me.

Solution

  • I am assuming you are using curl to query a FileMaker server. If so, you are looking for the -max url parameter

    From the Help PDF for FileMaker Server 13

    –max (Maximum records) query parameter Specifies the maximum number of records you want returned Value is: A number, or use the value all to return all records. If –max is not specified, all records are returned.
