Pagination confusion

[thedangler]

I have an api endpoint that does implement pagination like limi/offset.
I've connected that api to the a UI and I want the UI to control the next page.
I'm looking at the documentation and it looks like saloon automatically gets every page for you?

How would I go about telling it what page to get?

Hey @thedangler I'm really sorry for missing this discussion question!

If it's still pertinent - the OffsetPaginator is what you'd need: https://docs.saloon.dev/installable-plugins/pagination/limit-offset-pagination

I would recommend the above page though if you haven't already. By default we assume there are two query parameters to be sent: limit and offset however some APIs like to use top and skip. You can customise this on the paginator class.

Hi Sammy,
No worries this is an ongoing project.
I have the pagination implemented but the docs loop through each page. Is it possible to use pagination but doing $request->next() or $request->page(3) ?

Thanks
