How does giving query parameter "FilterId" filter the Get Sheet API response? I see no difference.
I am trying to give a particular filterId with a valid value of a manually created filter on a sheet, but the response however remains the same with and without this filter.
On the UI of the sheet, filtration works exactly fine but I do not see the API response getting filtered out. Am I missing out on something? Do I need to look out for something else? Is my understanding wrong here?
I am expecting the same cells (rows and columns) to appear in API response as well as per the filter applied using filterId.

Hi @Nishika Manira .
Currently the use of filters via the API is limited to query params descriptors. When adding the "filterID" as a query param as you show in your screenshot, your API response should include the parameter "filteredout" with boolean "true" or "false" values; provided that the filter is already applied in the sheet:
This goes in line with the documentation since filters cannot be created or updated from the API. When you have a moment, please let our Product team know about your feedback by filling in this form, here. Thank you!
I hope that this can be of help.
Cheers!
