Article Sort by SortOrder is not working on normal page

My guess is your pageIndex is set to 1 so you are always getting the second page.  pageIndex is zero based

I have 4 articles but total count is showing 0. zero index is also not working

Are the articles published?  In a category?  Is the collection Id correct?

Hi Patrick,

All the articles are published in a particular category and the collection id is correct.

The issue here is:

Working Scenario: While using API $articles_v1_articles.List($query) and passing 'SortBy="PublishDate"', it is returning all 4 articles of category.

Current NonWorking Scenario: While using API $articles_v1_articles.List($query) and passing 'SortBy="SortOrder"', it is returning 0 articles of category.

Since we are using the later scenario in a custom widget on a custom URL so it is not working. So, have we imposed some restriction for the same ?

Have you checked the errors collection that is returned by that call?

You will likely see an error there that says: SortOrder cannot be used to sort when CategoryIds are not provided.

Thank you, it worked.
