List Files (lawmatics_list-files)
List file metadata from Lawmatics with optional pagination, sorting, and a single-field filter. Rows carry a `relationships` envelope of to-one {id,type} pointers (documentable owner, folder, parent folder). To list the files belonging to one record (matter, contact, company, invoice, …), filter on documentable_id with that record's id. You can also filter on created_at / updated_at by date. Returns metadata only — use download-file to retrieve a file's contents.
Tool Input
pageinteger— Page number (1-based)(> 0)
filterobject— Optional single-field filter; one filter at a time
fieldstringrequired— Field to filter on: documentable_id (numeric id of the record — matter/prospect, contact, company, invoice, … — the file belongs to; the way to list one record's files), created_at, or updated_at (dates)(enum: "documentable_id", "created_at", "updated_at")
operatorstring— Comparison operator. Omit to use the Lawmatics per-field default (= for documentable_id). Use = for documentable_id and a range operator (e.g. >=) for created_at / updated_at(enum: "=", "!=", "<", "<=", ">", ">=", "null", "not_null")
valuestringrequired— Value to compare against (ignored for null / not_null operators)
sortBystring— Column to sort by(enum: "id", "created_at", "updated_at")
sortOrderstring— Sort direction; ascending or descending(enum: "asc", "desc")
