Query Parameters

Query Parameters

You build queries using query parameters. Each query parameter uses operators and accepts values. Some query parameters are available for versioned objects only. These are query parameters that relate to configuration management. For example, the Check-In Time query parameter displays checked-in versioned objects for a specified time, before or after a specified time, or within a specified number of days.
The following table describes the query parameters and the valid operators and values for each parameter:

Object Used Status
Displays objects that are used by other objects. For example, you can find mappings that are not used in any session.
If any version of an object is used by another object, the query returns the most recent version of the object. This occurs even when the most recent version of the object is unused. The query does not return workflows or cubes because these objects cannot be used by other objects.
