The names displayed in the list are the ID values of the Collections.

Document Query Options

Cross-Partition Query

This parameter corresponds to the x-ms-documentdb-query-enablecrosspartition header.

If your query is against a partitioned Collection but does not filter on a Partition Key, you must enable this parameter.

Partition Key

This optional parameter corresponds to the x-ms-documentdb-partitionkey header.

The value will be converted to a JSON array with a single string element if it does not already appear to be one. This is the format required for the header.

Features Per Request

DocumentDB paginates query results. This parameter specifies the maximum number of Documents (features) that may be returned in each page.

Valid values: 1 to 1000

Default value: 1000

Retries After Throttling

This parameter specifies the maximum number of times to reattempt a request that is rate-limited by DocumentDB. The server performs rate-limiting when the size and frequency of requests exceeds the Collection’s provisioned throughput.

If the request continues to be rate-limited after retrying for the specified number of times, the writer logs a warning and skips the request.

Default: 3

If this parameter is set to Yes, the complete JSON for each Document is included in the documentdb_json format attribute.
