Getting terms in descending order

Hello,

We have requirement to get terms using ascending and descending order.
We are using qt=/terms but this only gives terms in ascending order if I set terms.sort=index

Is there a way or workound to get terms in descending order.

We are also providing terms.lower and terms.upper to restrict data.


Thanks,
Jigar Gajjar

In a word, “no”. The Terms component is intended
to look forward through the terms list.

You could always specify terms.limit=-1 and only display
the last N of the returned list, but the list may be very long.

Best,
Erick
