Leaderboard

Use cases

Leaderboard visualization

Visualize leaderboard data in your apps.

Aggregated tables

Display aggregated data in tables.

Features

All the common API features, plus:

Group by dimensions

Group the results by one or more dimensions.

Use dimensions in the query to specify the dimensions to group by

query LeaderboardExample {
  leaderboard(input: {
    ...
    dimensions: [
      {
        columnName: "restaurant_name"
      }
    ]
    ...
  }) {
    headers
    rows
  }
}

Ordering

Order the results based on a sort direction.

Use sort to specify the sort direction (ASC or DESC)

query LeaderboardExample {
  leaderboard(input: {
    ...
    sort: DESC
    ...
  }) {
    rows
  }
}

Row limit

Limit the number of rows returned.

Use rowLimit to specify the maximum number of rows to return

query LeaderboardExample {
  leaderboard(input: {
    ...
    rowLimit: 10
    ...
  }) {
    rows
  }
}

Example

Example 1: Simple leaderboard query
