Child node types

Filter query results

After configuring the root node of your query, you can refine the results with child nodes. Each belongs to one of three groups.

Conditions

These nodes define conditions that items must satisfy. They can be added to any query branch. Fill their segments with inputs or functions.

Node Type	Description	Accepts
Logical nodes	Combines multiple comparison nodes into branches, using All or Any	Logical, Comparison
Comparison nodes	Checks a condition against one or two inputs, e.g. Equals, Less than	Inputs, Functions

See all conditions

Node	Segments	Accepted Value Type
All / Any	Branches	Conditions
Equals / Not equals	2	Any except Geometry
Less than / Greater than	2	Number, Date, Date Time, Time, Seasonal
Is set / Is not set	1	Any except Geometry, on a reference node
Starts with / Contains word	2	Text
Attribute search	1	Text, as a fixed value
Within / Intersects / Disjoint	2	Geometry
Connected to / Not connected to	1	Item Id, on a Link attribute

Inputs

These nodes provide a value to a condition. They fill the segments of comparison nodes and functions, and hold no nodes of their own.

Node Type	Description
Count	Counts the number of items referenced by a chosen Link attribute
Reference nodes	References an attribute or property value, on the queried item or a linked item
Value nodes	Provides a fixed, dynamic or looked-up value, e.g. Text, Number, Date

See all inputs

Node	Category	Value Type
Count	Aggregation	Number
Attribute	Reference	Same as the attribute
Property	Reference	Design code, Item Id
Property (Last edit date)	Reference	Date Time
Number	Value	Number
Text	Value	Text
Yes/No	Value	Yes/No
Date / Date Time	Value	Date, Date Time
Seasonal	Value	Seasonal
Time	Value	Time
Relative Date / Relative Date Time	Value	Date, Date Time
GeoJSON	Value	Geometry
Item	Value	Item Id
Global Unique Code	Value	Design code
Value From Item Attribute	Value	Same as the attribute

Functions

These nodes calculate a number from segments of their own. They fill the segments of comparison nodes and other functions.

Node Type	Description	Accepts
Length	Counts the characters in a text value	Inputs
Arithmetic nodes	Calculates a number from the inputs you supply, e.g. Add, Divide, Ceiling	Inputs, Functions

See all functions

Node	Category	Value Type	Segments
Length	String operator	Number	1 (Text)
Add / Subtract	Arithmetic	Number	2 (Number)
Multiply / Divide	Arithmetic	Number	2 (Number)
Power / Root	Arithmetic	Number	2 (Number)
Ceiling / Floor	Arithmetic	Number	1 (Number)

Compatibility

Two nodes can be compared when their value types match, subject to a few rules.

See all rules

1. One segment must read from the queried items.

2. Filling one segment restricts what the other can hold, so the order you build in changes what the builder offers.

3. Two attributes can only be compared if they're the same type on the same item. Test Link attributes with Connected to, and Geometry attributes with Within / Intersects / Disjoint.

4. Attribute and Property can't be compared with each other.

5. The Last edit date property only works with Less than / Greater than.
