The response has the following parameters:
fields – Array of objects. Contains the following information about fields: uniqueName – String. The field’s unique name. Will later be used in /members and /select requests.type – String. The field’s type. Supported values are: "string", "number", "date".caption optional – String. The field’s caption to appear on the UI.hierarchy optional – String. The hierarchy’s name. Used to configure multilevel hierarchies. Specify this property to set the field as a level of a hierarchy.parent optional – String. The parent level’s unique name. This property is necessary to specify if the field is a level of a hierarchy and has a parent level.folder optional – String. The field’s folder. Folders are used to organize groups of fields in the Field List. folder supports nesting via / (e.g., "Folder/Subfolder"). interval optional – String. A date’s aggregation interval to group dates on the server. The component will automatically send it in /members and /select requests. Possible values depend on how the server handles date intervals. Only for fields of the "date" type.aggregations optional – Array of strings. A list of supported aggregation functions for the field. To define supported aggregations for all fields, use the root aggregations property."sum", "count", "distinctcount", "average", "median", "product", "min", "max", "stdevp", "stdevs", "none", or a custom aggregation. Note: for the fields of the "number" type, Flexmonster Pivot supports built-in front-end aggregations.filters optional – Boolean|Object. Supported filters for the field. To define supported filters for all fields, specify the root filters property.true, or each filter type can be turned on separately: members optional – Boolean. A configuration of an include/exclude members filter. If true, the members filter is enabled for the field in Flexmonster.query optional – Boolean|Array of strings. A configuration of a conditional filter on members. To turn on this filter, either set query to true or specify an array of supported conditions.true, this enables all the conditions that exist in Flexmonster for the members filter. See the list of supported conditions for “string”, “number”, and “date” field types.valueQuery optional – Boolean|Array of strings. A configuration of a conditional filter on values. To turn on this filter, either set valueQuery to true or specify an array of supported conditions.true, this enables all the conditions that exist in Flexmonster for the values filter. See the list of supported conditions.aggregations optional – Array of strings|Object. Supported aggregation functions for all fields or fields of a certain type. Supported aggregations for a certain field can be defined in the fields.aggregations property.aggregations as an array of strings. Supported values include: "sum", "count", "distinctcount", "average", "median", "product", "min", "max","stdevp", "stdevs", "none", or a custom aggregation. Note: for the fields of the "number" type, Flexmonster Pivot supports built-in front-end aggregations.aggregations property as an object with the following properties:any optional – Array of strings. Supported aggregation functions for any field type.date optional – Array of strings. Supported aggregation functions for the "date" field type.number optional – Array of strings. Supported aggregation functions for the "number" field type. Note: for the fields of this type, Flexmonster Pivot supports built-in front-end aggregations.string optional – Array of strings. Supported aggregation functions for the "string" field type. filters optional – Boolean|Object. Supported filters for all fields or for fields of a certain type. To define filters for a specific field, use the fields.filters property.true, or each filter type can be configured separately for fields of a certain type: any optional – Boolean|Object. Supported filters for any field type.members optional – Boolean. A configuration of an include/exclude members filter. If true, the members filter is enabled in Flexmonster.query optional – Boolean|Array of strings. A configuration of a conditional filter on members. To turn on this filter, either set query to true or specify an array of supported conditions.true, this enables all the conditions that exist in Flexmonster for the members filter. There are 4 common conditions for all field types that can be specified here: "equal", "not_equal", "between", "not_between".valueQuery optional – Boolean|Array of strings. A configuration of a conditional filter on values. To turn on this filter, either set valueQuery to true or specify an array of supported conditions.true, this enables all the conditions that exist in Flexmonster for the values filter. See the list of supported conditions.date optional – Boolean|Object. Supported filters for the "date" field type.members optional – Boolean. A configuration of an include/exclude members filter. If true, the members filter is enabled in Flexmonster.query optional – Boolean|Array of strings. A configuration of a conditional filter on members. To turn on this filter, either set query to true or specify an array of supported conditions.true, this enables all the conditions that exist in Flexmonster for the members filter. See the list of supported conditions for the “date” field type.valueQuery optional – Boolean|Array of strings. A configuration of a conditional filter on values. To turn on this filter, either set valueQuery to true or specify an array of supported conditions.true, this enables all the conditions that exist in Flexmonster for the values filter. See the list of supported conditions.number optional – Boolean|Object. Supported filters for the "number" field type.members optional – Boolean. A configuration of an include/exclude members filter. If true, the members filter is enabled in Flexmonster.query optional – Boolean|Array of strings. A configuration of a conditional filter on members. To turn on this filter, either set query to true or specify an array of supported conditions.true, this enables all the conditions that exist in Flexmonster for the membersvalueQuery optional – Boolean|Array of strings. A configuration of a conditional filter on values. To turn on this filter, either set valueQuery to true or specify an array of supported conditions.true, this enables all the conditions that exist in Flexmonster for the values filter. See the list of supported conditions.string optional – Boolean|Object. Supported filters for the "string" field type.members optional – Boolean. A configuration of an include/exclude members filter. If true, the members filter is enabled in Flexmonster.query optional – Boolean|Array of strings. A configuration of a conditional filter on members. To turn on this filter, either set query to true or specify an array of supported conditions.true, this enables all the conditions that exist in Flexmonster for the members filter. See the list of supported conditions for the “string” field type.valueQuery optional – Boolean|Array of strings. A configuration of a conditional filter on values. To turn on this filter, either set valueQuery to true or specify an array of supported conditions.true, this enables all the conditions that exist in Flexmonster for the values filter. See the list of supported conditions.advanced – Boolean. Indicates whether the server has advanced hierarchical filters implemented. When the advanced parameter is set to true, it means that the server supports hierarchies and can filter them, so multilevel hierarchies can be configured in the component. When the parameter is false, the server cannot filter the hierarchical data. In this case, if multilevel hierarchies were configured in the MappingObject, these configurations will be ignored. Default value: false. sorted optional – Boolean. If true, the fields’ order from the response will be used to display fields in the Field List./handshake request
