# SortMaxLevels

NOTE: You do not normally need to change the value of this parameter from the default.

The maximum number of sort options you can use.

When you specify multiple sort options, IDOL Server sorts by the first option, and then by the second, and so on. You can use up to a maximum of `SortMaxLevels` options in a query.

Increasing the value of `SortMaxLevels` might increase the at-rest memory usage of IDOL Server.
