Change Endpoints

Query Changes

GET /changes/

Queries changes visible to the caller. The query string must be provided by the q parameter. The n parameter can be used to limit the returned results.

As result a list of ChangeInfo entries is returned. The change output is sorted by the last update time, most recently updated to oldest updated.

Query for open changes of watched projects:

    }
  ]

If the n query parameter is supplied and additional changes exist that match the query beyond the end, the last change object has a _more_changes: true JSON field set. Callers can resume a query with the N query parameter, supplying the last change’s _sortkey field as the value. When going in the reverse direction with the P query parameter a _more_changes: true is put in the first change object if there are results before the first change returned.

Clients are allowed to specify more than one query by setting the q parameter multiple times. In this case the result is an array of arrays, one per query in the same order the queries were given in.

Additional fields can be obtained by adding o parameters, each option requires more database lookups and slows down the query response time to the client so they are generally disabled by default. Optional fields are:

  • LABELS: a summary of each label required for submit, and approvers that have granted (or rejected) with that label.

  • DETAILED_LABELS: detailed label information, including numeric values of all existing approvals, recognized label values, values permitted to be set by the current user, and reviewers that may be removed by the current user.

  • CURRENT_REVISION: describe the current revision (patch set) of the change, including the commit SHA-1 and URLs to fetch from.

  • ALL_REVISIONS: describe all revisions, not just current.

  • CURRENT_COMMIT: parse and output all header fields from the commit object, including message. Only valid when the current revision or all revisions are selected.

  • ALL_COMMITS: parse and output all header fields from the output revisions. If only CURRENT_REVISION was requested then only the current revision’s commit data will be output.

  • CURRENT_FILES: list files modified by the commit, including basic line counts inserted/deleted per file. Only valid when the current revision or all revisions are selected.

  • ALL_FILES: list files modified by the commit, including basic line counts inserted/deleted per file. If only the CURRENT_REVISION was requested the only that commit’s modified files will be output.

  • DETAILED_ACCOUNTS: include _account_id and email fields when referencing accounts.

  • MESSAGES: include messages associated with the change.
