Pagination

The legacy ExaVault API does not include cursor-based pagination. Instead, you can use the limit and offset request parameters to restrict the number of results returned, and make multiple requests to retrieve subsequent pages of results.

The limit parameter is the maximum number of results that can be returned, starting from the beginning of the list or from the offset parameter value, if that was provided. The value of limit cannot be larger than 10,000.

The offset parameter represents how many records to skip before returning up to limit number of results.

Sorting

You can specify what order the results will be returned in by using the sort parameter. Valid options are created or -created.

Choosing to sort by created returns records in ascending order (oldest to newest). Using -created (prefixed with -, a minus/hyphen character) returns records in descending order (from newest to oldest).
