You don't need a view for this. You can use the bulk document API to fetch multiple documents with a single request:

You definitely want to POST the keys to the view. Looping over the entire view in a list function slows down noticeably for a large number of documents. To get the docs with the 3 keys mentioned in your example, you could do something like this. curl -X POST -d '{"keys": ["asdf", "powsf", "aaaa"]}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' 'http://localhost:5984/db/_design/app/_view/view_name' Justin On Thu, Feb 24, 2011 at 6:41 AM, Martin Hewitt<[email protected]> wrote:Hi all, How would I create a view to retrieve documents with the IDs (i.e. non-numeric, non-sequential): ["asdf", "powsf", "aaaa"] I would like the three documents that match these IDs, is this doable in one view or should I just retrieve them individually? Thanks, Martin
