By default, the API will return objects in the order they were created. However, you can also order objects by other fields if the endpoint supports it by surfacing the ordering query parameter. That query parameter also shares the specific strings you're allowed to order by; not every field is supported.
To order by a single field, you can add the ordering query parameter to your request. For example, if you want to order by the subject field, you can do so by adding the ordering query parameter to your request:
To order by a single field in descending order, you can add a - prefix to the field name. For example, if you want to order by the subject field in descending order, you can do so by adding the ordering query parameter to your request:

(This syntax is unfortunately divergent from our metadata filtering syntax, but it's the best we can do for now.)
