Smart Ordering

Playlist smart ordering allows you to change the order of its videos by sort options. The videos added or updated into a playlist with sort options are sorted automatically following that sort option

Parameter	Function	Type
playlistdate Category	An array of sort options. Only two levels of sorting are accepted and videos are sorted first by first level, and second by second level	Array

Every sort_option has three fields:

direction: The direction to sort the results. It accepts two values: asc (ascending - lowest to highest) and desc (descending - highest to lowest) order.
sort_by: The field name which will be taken into account to sort the results. It accepts the following values: created_at, published_at, and title.
sort_by_type: The type of the field which will be taken into account to sort the results. It accepts the following values: date, datetime, string, integer, array, and boolean. The difference between date and datetime is that date will only take the date part of the field, while datetime will take the date and time part of the field; so for example, for a date "01/01/2001 01:01:01", date will take only "01/01/2001" into account, while datetime will take the complete date "01/01/2001 01:01:01" into account.

Here is an JSON example to be set as the body to update a Playlist with one level smart ordering:

{
  "playlist": {
    "sort_options": [
      {
        "direction": "desc",
        "sort_by": "published_at",
        "sort_by_type": "datetime"
      }
    ]
  }
}

And with two levels smart ordering:

{
  "playlist": {
    "playlist title": "Title",
    "sort_options": [
      {
        "direction": "desc",
        "sort_by": "published_at",
        "sort_by_type": "datetime"
      },
      {
        "direction": "asc",
        "sort_by": "title",
        "sort_by_type": "string"
      }
    ]
  }
}
