# Method name: queryCheckoutTemplates()

# Method package: wixEcomBackend

# Method menu location: wixEcomBackend --> checkoutTemplates --> queryCheckoutTemplates

# Method Link: https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/apis/wix-ecom-backend/checkout-templates/query-checkout-templates.md

# Method Description:

Creates a query to retrieve a list of checkout templates.  

The `queryCheckoutTemplates()` function builds a query to retrieve a list of checkout templates and returns a `CheckoutTemplatesQueryBuilder` object.  

The returned object contains the query definition, which is typically used to run the query using the `find()` function.  

You can refine the query by chaining `CheckoutTemplatesQueryBuilder` functions onto the query. `CheckoutTemplatesQueryBuilder` functions enable you to sort, filter, and control the results that `queryCheckoutTemplates()` returns.  

`queryCheckoutTemplates()` runs with the following `CheckoutTemplatesQueryBuilder` default that you can override:
+ `ascending("_id")`  

The functions that are chained to `queryCheckoutTemplates()` are applied in the order they are called. For example, if you apply `ascending("status")` and then `ascending("_id")`, the results are sorted first by the `"status"`, and then, if there are multiple results with the same `"status"`, the items are sorted by `"_id"`.  

The following `CheckoutTemplatesQueryBuilder` functions are supported for the `queryCheckoutTemplates()` function. For a full description of the checkout template object, see the object returned for the `items` property in `CheckoutTemplatesQueryResult`.
