Objective
This article helps you control which part of a long Sync List you are looking at, the index the list starts reading from, and whether items are shown in ascending or descending index order.
Product
Twilio Sync
Environment
Twilio Console
User Account Permission/Role(s) Required
Your user role must allow reading Twilio Sync Services.
Procedure
- In the Twilio Console, select Builder tools in the left sidebar.
- Select Sync, then Services.
- In the Name column, select the Service that holds the List.
- Select the Lists tab, then select the List's SID to open it.
- On the Items tab, select Set item range.
- In Start at index, enter the index of the first item to read. Leave it empty to read from the start of the List.
- Under Bounds, choose Inclusive, include the item at that index or Exclusive, start with the next item.
- Select Apply. The table reloads showing only items in that window, and the button label changes to show the range currently in effect.
- To go back to the whole List, select the range button again, clear Start at index, and select Apply.
To change the ordering instead, select the Index column header. Each selection alternates between ascending and descending order.
Additional Information
- The range is a read window, not a filter: it decides where reading begins rather than matching item contents.
- Index 0 is a valid starting point. Combining a start index of 0 with Exclusive bounds skips the first item.
- Changing the range or the ordering returns you to the first page of results.
- Use the rows-per-page selector to show 10, 40, or 100 items at a time.
