records_query_from_view()

Query records using the filters and sort order of a saved view. Handy when you've already built the right filter in a view and want a flow to reuse it.

Syntax

records_query_from_view(viewId, limit?)

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`viewId`	int	yes	The numeric id of a saved view.
`limit`	int	no	Max rows to return. Default 1000, clamped to 1–1000.

Returns

A list (array) of records matching the view, in the view's sort order.

Example

$due = records_query_from_view(204, 100);
foreach ( $due as $row ) {
    record_comment("tasks", $row["_meta"]["id"], "Reminder: due soon");
}

Example output

[
    ["title" => "Renew SSL", "due" => "2026-06-15", "_meta" => ["id" => 88, "title" => "Renew SSL"]],
    ...
]

Notes

The view id is numeric — find it in the view's URL or settings. The synthesized Default view (id 0) is not accepted.
The view's table must be in the flow's workspace scope.
Filters that reference fields deleted since the view was saved are silently skipped.
