Hi @joseph246th 

GlideAggregate is an extension of GlideRecord. It provides the capability to do aggregation (COUNT, SUM, MIN, MAX, AVG). These operations can be done with regular GlideRecord use, but with GlideAggregate, they are optimized around these use cases and offer significant efficiencies.

Hi there,

Interesting question, you are asking how to use it, though you do also mention that its magnificent and has incredible power 😅. That's a weird combination.
