            "author": "Booker T. Washington"
          }
        

Limit and skip quotes

You can pass `limit` and `skip` params to limit and skip the results for pagination, and use `limit=0` to get all items.

You can pass `select` as query params with comma-separated values to select specific data

          fetch('https://dummyjson.com/quotes?limit=3&skip=10&select=quote')
          .then(res => res.json())
          .then(console.log);
        

Show Output

          {
            "quotes": [
              {
                "id": 11, // first 10 items were skipped
                "quote": "We must balance conspicuous consumption with conscious capitalism."
              },
              {
                "id": 12,
                "quote": "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans."
              },
              {
                "id": 13,
                "quote": "We become what we think about."
              }
            ],
            "total": 100,
            "skip": 10,
            "limit": 3
          }
        

Sort quotes

You can pass `sortBy` and `order` params to sort the results, `sortBy` should be field name and `order` should be "asc" or "desc"

          fetch('https://dummyjson.com/quotes?sortBy=author&order=asc')
          .then(res => res.json())
          .then(console.log);

                "quote": "The Bay of Bengal is hit frequently by cyclones. The months of November and May, in particular, are dangerous in this regard.",
                "author": "Abdul Kalam" // sorted by author in ascending order
              },
              {...},
