# startWith Parameter

Previous

Next

The `startWith` parameter in the expression specifies the first object in the hierarchy. This parameter mirrors the Oracle Database `START WITH` clause.

To include a `startWith` parameter, build an expression to specify the appropriate object, and pass it as a parameter in the `setHierarchicalQueryClause` method. If you do not specify the root object for the hierarchy, set this value to `null`.
