COMAND Queries

webCOMAND and the API support three query languages to retrieve content from a COMAND repository.  Each language offers features and efficiencies best suited for different tasks.

• cPath - A path expression to traverse folder and object hierarchies, similar to XPath. In the simplest form, it can be used like a file system path is used for directories and files.
• cQL - A query language similar to SQL, except with object-oriented features that make it more concise and capable.
• cQuery - A query language that extends cPath with features similar to jQuery. It combines the features of cPath, cQL and content type functionality, but it is more difficult to learn and use. In addition to cPath and cQL features, object and collection methods can be intermixed and chained to select, filter and process objects in more powerful ways.

All three query languages specify query criteria using the same expressions.
