Sorting issue while getting product from category ID using REST Api

Question

I am reviewing Magento 2 REST API. I am trying to get all the products from its category ID using below API:

GET /V1/categories/:categoryId/products

Some how I am unable to get product details (Can't even get its name and price) and it simply return product SKU, ID and Position in response. Moreover I cannot apply any kind of sorting or pagination like if i want to limit response array count to 10 or 20 then i cannot do it.

I tried to apply Search criteria as well but found no luck.

It works perfectly with Product Listing API

GET /V1/products

Please help me out. May be I am missing something.

Answer 1

Try posting something like this:

[POST] rest/V1/products?searchCriteria[page_size]=50&searchCriteria[filter_groups][0][filters][0][field]=category_id&searchCriteria[filter_groups][0][filters][0][value]=11

11 = the category id
