# Pagination

## Introduction

Some APIs include pagination functionality so that large HTTP responses can be served as multiple pages, which are more manageable. Different APIs use different methods to approach this.

{% hint style="info" %}
Paginating requests for resources that might be large is recommended - otherwise the API may truncate the result or timeout whilst attempting to gather the data. Limiting requests to a smaller number of objects at a time typically results in a faster, more reliable outcome.
{% endhint %}

## Need to know

When paginated data is pulled, a payload is generated for each page.

## Setting a pagination method

To set a pagination method for an endpoint, click in the pagination method field to activate a dropdown list of supported methods:

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/dLVYvcMHI6zdXrc8UJxY" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

Having selected a method, click **save**. Any required options for the selected method are displayed.
