Filter by Box

Calculates how many objects within the given table lie in a rectangular box. The operation is synchronous, meaning that a response will not be returned until all the objects are fully available. The response payload provides the count of the resulting set. A new resultant set which satisfies the input NAI restriction specification is also created when a input parameter view_name is passed in as part of the input payload.

Input Parameter Description

Name	Type	Description
table_name	string	Name of the table on which the bounding box operation will be performed. Must be an existing table.
view_name	string	Optional name of the result view that will be created containing the results of the query. Has the same naming restrictions as tables. The default value is ''.
x_column_name	string	Name of the column on which to perform the bounding box query. Must be a valid numeric column.
min_x	double	Lower bound for the column chosen by input parameter x_column_name. Must be less than or equal to input parameter max_x.
max_x	double	Upper bound for input parameter x_column_name. Must be greater than or equal to input parameter min_x.
y_column_name	string	Name of a column on which to perform the bounding box query. Must be a valid numeric column.
min_y	double	Lower bound for input parameter y_column_name. Must be less than or equal to input parameter max_y.
max_y	double	Upper bound for input parameter y_column_name. Must be greater than or equal to input parameter min_y.
options	map of string to strings	Optional parameters. The default value is an empty map ( {} ). Supported Parameters (keys) Parameter Description collection_name Name of a collection which is to contain the newly created view.
