Temperature change and gradient loads applied to members and plates
Get All
Gets all loads with optional filtering and pagination.
Use the cases query parameter to filter by load cases — accepts SG list format
(e.g. "1,3-7,10"). Omit any list filter to match all.
Returns an empty array when no loads match the filter — never 404.
Results are sorted by Case ascending, then by entity Id ascending.
Pagination metadata is returned in response headers (Total-Count, Offset, Limit).
query Parameters
ElementTypeFilter by element type (member or plate). Returns only thermal loads for the specified element type. Omit to return both member and plate thermal loads.
Element type discriminator for thermal loads. Determines whether a thermal load applies to a member or plate element. Maps to SPACE GASS lookup table "Element Type".
ElementsElement Ids to filter by, in SG list format (e.g. "1,3-7,10").
The meaning depends on ElementType — member Id for members, plate Id for plates.
Omit to return thermal loads for all elements.
CasesLoad cases to filter by, in SG list format (e.g. "1,3-7,10").
Returns only loads belonging to the specified cases.
Omit to return loads for all cases.
LoadCategoryFilter by load category number. Returns only loads assigned to the specified category.
OffsetNumber of items to skip from the start of the result set. Default is 0.
LimitMaximum number of items to return. Default is null (return all).

List of errors describing what went wrong. Always populated on the wire — falls back to a single entry derived from SpaceGassApi.Models.Dtos.Common.ErrorResponseDto.Detail / SpaceGassApi.Models.Dtos.Common.ErrorResponseDto.ErrorCode when no caller-supplied list is present, so clients can iterate uniformly. Multiple entries appear for validation failures (one entry per failed rule).

resourceTypeIdentifies entity types managed by the API. Kept separate from SGFileID to allow for future API-only entities that may not have a formal SPACE GASS FileID.
countCurrent count of items in this resource. Null for sub-resources whose count does not apply uniformly.
maxIdMaximum Id currently in use (single-int Id entities only).
nextIdNext available Id (single-int Id entities only).
Field definitions describing the resource's wire shape. Each entry corresponds
to a property on the read DTO; jsonName matches the JSON key clients see.
