SOAP Option
(SPServices synonym)REST Comments
ViewFields
(CAMLViewFields)
$select Choose the columns you would like to retrieve. With both SOAP and REST we get
some data we don’t explicitly request, but by specifying only the columns we need
we can reduce the payload sizes.
Query
(CAMLQuery)
$filter,
$orderby
Specify which items in the list we would like to return and how we would like them
sorted.
RowLimit
(CAMLRowLimit)
$limit Say how many items matching the Query we would like to receive. In SOAP we can
specify 0 to get all matching items; in REST we can omit the parameter to get all the
matching items. Otherwise, we can specify any integer as the limit.
ViewName
(CAMLViewName)
NA ViewName lets you choose the view you would like to get in the response. There’s
no REST equivalent here. I’ve always discouraged using this option in SOAP because
it’s too easy to change the view settings and cause unintended consequences.
QueryOptions
(CAMLQueryOptions)
NA In SOAP, this lets us specify some options that change how the data is returned to
us. For example, we can ask for all of the attachment URLs rather than just a
Boolean which tells us that there are attachments.
NA $expand This option in REST has no direct equivalent in SOAP. $expand allows us to indicate
that we would like the values for a relationship - rather than just the indices - using
a projection. This is important with Lookup columns and Person or Group columns.

We’ll look at live examples showing the different ways we can request data, along with conversion approaches.
