Description of problem: no longer able to sort by descending order the api output in 5.8 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.8.1 How reproducible: all the time Steps to Reproduce: 1.# curl -k --user aa:bb -s -H Content-type: application/json -H Accept: application/json -X GET "https://example.cloudforms.com/api/requests?sort_by=id&sort_order=descending&limit=10&expand=resources" | python -m json.tool | egrep '\"id\":|updated_on' 2. 3. Actual results: the output is sorted in ascending order Expected results: the output is sorted as passed Additional info: no error raised in the logs for this happens in 5.8.0 and 5.8.1, does not in 5.7
This is not a bug, as the method for sorting is via `sort_order=desc` or `sort_order=asc`. I have verified that sorting works via `sort_order=desc` This is also documented in the API docs here: http://manageiq.org/docs/reference/latest/api/overview/query
