Pagination
This guide demonstrates use cases for the Limit and Offset Sieves. These sieves are used when limit
and offset
parameters are found in the query parameters, e.g. ?limit=10&offset=20
.
General usage
The canonical use case for the limit and offset sieves is to provide pagination for the API results by a certain column. For example, it is needed to fetch the third page of blog posts in groups of 20, the request and its query parameters could be:
/blog_posts?limit=20&offset=40
