Versioning
This package uses the scheme YY.Major.Minor-RentmanAPIVersion, inspired by calendar versioning:
| Segment | Meaning | Example |
|—|—|—|
| YY | Year of release | 26 = 2026 |
| Major | Breaking changes | 1 |
| Minor | New features / fixes | 1 |
| RentmanAPIVersion | Rentman OpenAPI spec version this node targets | 1.8.1 |
Example: 26.1.1-1.8.1 — released in 2026, first major version, first minor update, built against Rentman API v1.8.1.
When Rentman releases a new API version, the RentmanAPIVersion segment is bumped. When the node itself gains new features or fixes without an API change, only YY.Major.Minor changes.

Features
All Get Collection operations support:
| Feature | Details |
|—|—|
| Return All | Automatically follows nextpageurl cursor pagination |
| Limit | 1–1,500 items per page (default: 50) |
| Offset | Skip N results for offset-based pagination |
| Sort | +field ascending / -field descending (e.g. +name, -modified) |
| Filters | Per-resource filters: name, code, status, date ranges, path references |
| Date filters | Modified After/Before, Created After using Rentman’s relational operators |
| Incremental sync | ID Greater Than filter for efficient delta syncs |
| Field selection | Fields filter to request only specific fields (reduces payload) |
Expanding linked items
All read operations (Get, Get Collection, and read sub-resource operations) expose an Expand field. By default a field that references another resource returns a path string (e.g. "/equipment/12"); pass one or more field names to Expand to inline the full linked object instead. Accepts a comma-separated list and supports dot notation for nested expansion up to 3 levels.
Expand: equipment,equipment.creator
Only item/link fields can be expanded. Requires Rentman API v1.13.0 or newer.
