Class EntityIdFilter
- Namespace
- ToSic.Eav.DataSources
- Assembly
- ToSic.Eav.DataSources.dll
The base class for all DataSources, especially custom DataSources. It must always be inherited. It provides a lot of core functionality to get configurations, ensure caching and more.
Important: in most cases you will inherit the CustomDataSource DataSource for custom data sources.
The ItemIdFilter DataSource is part of the Standard EAV Data Sources. It will only return the items with the id specified.
Warning: You should always use it in combination with a Content-Type filter, as you want to be sure nobody can just crawl any entity you have in your system!
How to use with the VisualQuery
When using the VisualQuery you can just drag it into your query. This is what it usually looks like:
You can also use multiple values:
Or URL-parameters:
Programming With The ItemIdFilter DataSource
We recommend to use the VisualQuery where possible, as it's easier to understand and is identical for C# and JavaScript. It's also better because it separates data-retrieval from visualization.
