# Adding the ability to sort orders by total item quantity

As of Admin API `2023-07` release we've added `TOTAL_ITEM_QUANTITY` to `OrderSortKeys` so that you can sort orders by the total quantity of items.

For more information on all of the other order sort keys that are available, visit our [developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/2023-07/enums/OrderSortKeys).
