Using a getMyTasks orderBy Element

You can sort the results returned by

getTasks

by setting the

orderBy

element. The fields name you can use are:

Created

Expiration

Modified

Name

Owner

PresentationName

PresName

PresSubject

Priority

State

Summary

The following example sorts the results with the most recent first (that is, in descending order), followed by the priority:

orderBy orderBy = new OrderBy();
orderBy.getFieldId().add("-Created"); 
orderBy.getFieldId().add("Priority");

Notice the minus sign ("-
") being used to set the order to descending.

In XML, this same example is written as follows:

<ns:orderBy>
     <ns:fieldId>-Created</ns:fieldId>
     <ns:fieldIPdriority</ns:fieldId>
</ns:orderBy>
