All top-level API resources have support for bulk fetches via "list" API methods.
For instance you can list charges, list customers, and list orders. These list API methods share a common structure, taking at least these three parameters: limit, starting_after, and ending_before.
Selz utilizes cursor-based pagination via the starting_after and ending_before parameters. Both take an existing object ID value. The ending_before parameter returns objects created before the named object, in descending chronological order. The starting_after parameter returns objects created after the named object, in ascending chronological order. If both parameters are provided, only ending_before is used.
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
limit |
A limit on the number of objects to be returned, between 1 and 100. |
starting_after |
A cursor for use in pagination. starting_after is an object ID that defines your place in the list. For instance, if you make a list request and receive 100 objects, ending with obj_foo, your subsequent call can include starting_after=obj_foo in order to fetch the next page of the list. |
ending_before |
A cursor for use in pagination. ending_before is an object ID that defines your place in the list. For instance, if you make a list request and receive 100 objects, starting with obj_bar, your subsequent call can include ending_before=obj_bar in order to fetch the previous page of the list. |
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
data |
An array containing the actual response elements, paginated by any request parameters. |
has_more |
Whether or not there are more elements available after this set. If false, this set comprises the end of the list. |
