+# Overriding Default Order
+
+API Platform Core provides an easy way to override the default order of items in your collection.
+
+By default, items in the collection are ordered in ascending (ASC) order by their resource identifier(s). If you want to
+customize this order, you must add an `order` attribute on your ApiResource annotation:
+
+```php
+<?php
+
+// src/AppBundle/Entity/Book.php
+
+namespace AppBundle\Entity;
+
+use ApiPlatform\Core\Annotation\ApiResource;
+
+/**
+ * @ApiResource(attributes={"order"={"foo": "ASC"}})
+ */
+class Book
+{
+    // ...
+
+    /**
+     * ...
+     */
+    public $foo;
+}
+```
+
+This `order` attribute is used as an array: the key defines the order field, the values defines the direction.
+If you only specify the key, `ASC` direction will be used as default. For example, to order by `foo` & `bar`:
+
+```php
+<?php
+
+// src/AppBundle/Entity/Book.php
+
+namespace AppBundle\Entity;
+
+use ApiPlatform\Core\Annotation\ApiResource;
+
+/**
+ * @ApiResource(attributes={"order"={"foo", "bar"}})
+ */
+class Book
+{
+    // ...
+
+    /**
+     * ...
+     */
+    public $foo;
+
+    /**
+     * ...
+     */
+    public $bar;
+}
+```
