Query entire class vs first object in the class

问题:

In my cloud code I want to retrieve the first object in the "Messages" class. Then i want to grab some information from that object, send it to another class, and finally delete that object from the "Messages" class i originally pulled it from.

My question is do i need to query the entire "Messages" class just to get the first object in it? I don't want to slow down my app due to inefficient code.

Parse.Cloud.afterSave("sendMessage", function(Parse.Message, response) {
  var body = null;
  var senderName = null;
  var senderId = null;
  var randUsers = [];

  var query = new.Parse.Query(Parse.Message);
  query.find({
    success: function(results){
      body.push(results[1].get("messageBody"));
      senderName.push(results[1].get("senderName"));
      senderId.push(results[1].get("senderId"));
      response.success(getUsers);
    }, 
    error: funtion(error){
      response.error("Error");
    }

  });
});

to avoid confusion: "getUsers" is an arbitrary function call.

To retrieve entry from class, you need the query the table. However, your problem is getting the first record which does not require getting the all record. From your code I can see that you get the first record of result array (result[1] ). You can apply the solution; getting the first record of the class that you want to query. You can do it via two ways; either you can set the limit 1 to your query or you can use the first() method. The Parse.Query JS API link is below;

Check the limit and first methods. Hope this helps. Regards.
