Hi 👋 I believe all list functions return results from newest to oldest, but am running a couple tests on the side to confirm. Does that match what you're seeing?

I was guessing created descending

#

but as the code I got from an old app is sorting on it's own, server side, by created, I wanted to be sure before doing some cleanup

Ah gotcha, yeah, so far all of my results are being returned in descending order based on created.

I found something in the docs (https://stripe.com/docs/api/pagination?lang=curl) but not sure if the second sentence, in the second paragraph, applies to all queries, or restricted to queries with ending_before and starting_after ?

Stripe API reference – Pagination – curl

Both parameters take an existing object ID value (see below) and return objects in reverse chronological order

Yeah, all of the list functions will return their results in descending order based on the created property.
