# Method name: querySections()

# Method package: wixRestaurantsV2

# Method menu location: wixRestaurantsV2 --> sections --> querySections

# Method Link: https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/apis/wix-restaurants-v2/menus/sections/query-sections.md

# Method Description:

Creates a query to retrieve a list of sections.

The `querySections()` function builds a query to retrieve a list of sections and returns a `SectionsQueryBuilder` object.

The returned object contains the query definition, which is used to run the query using the [`find()`](/sections/sections-query-builder/find) function.

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

`querySections()` runs with the following `SectionsQueryBuilder` defaults, which you can override:

* [`limit(100)`](/sections/sections-query-builder/limit)

The following `SectionsQueryBuilder` functions are supported for `querySections()`. For a full description of the section object, see the object returned for the [`items`](/sections/sections-query-result/items) property in `SectionsQueryResult`.

  const { items } = sections.querySections().find();
}

```

## querySections example for exporting from backend code

import { sections } from 'wix-restaurants.v2';
import { webMethod, Permissions } from 'wix-web-module';

export const querySections = webMethod(
  Permissions.Anyone,
  async (options) => {
    try {
      const result = await sections.querySections(options);
      return result;
    } catch (error) {
      console.error(error);
      // Handle the error
    }
  }
);
