I need help with two items. Attached is the API Request I’ve called to retrieve all rows under a Glide table. What’s returned is only RowIndex, rowID, Name(Which appears to provide a date).

How Can I:

1. Return back other columns/attributes for a record like email, job, date, status…etc

2. Return back rows that match certain conditions? e.g. status = active

Any help is appreciated!

Glide API will only work with basic columns. Computed columns aren’t supported since they are client side.

As Maxime said, as long as you have those as basic columns, they will be returned.

This is available for Glide Big Tables as SQL queries.

If these columns are empty, they won’t appear in the result returned from the API. And as others have mentioned, only non-computed columns are returned.
