Get Object List

Get the list of instances of a data type, with continuous updates.

Description

Gets a list of all the instances of a given data type. It is a shorthand for Query Instances Of followed by Observe Query.

The list is continuously refreshed. This may impact performance when large number of instances are present. In such scenarios, consider using Fetch Object List instead.

If other data types inherit from the selected, instances of those data types are returned as well (for example: asking for Vehicle will include Car and Truck).

Since v2.4, this replaces the Get Object List brick

Inputs

  • data type (Type): The type of instances to be retrieved from the database.

Outputs

  • objects list (Query Result): The non-ordered list of all the instances of the given data type and its extensions. A new result object is created each time the query result changes.
