Paginated results

Retired Boards Appdev Graphql Basics And Troubleshooting

Topic summary

Pagination of Shopify REST Admin API results was returning the same next-page token after the third page in Postman. The initial request used only updated_at_min, and subsequent calls incorrectly sent page_info and limit in headers.

Support advised to follow REST cursor-based pagination via the Link response header: include limit (<=250) in the first request, then use the Link-provided page_info and limit as URL query parameters for subsequent calls. Counting resources first can estimate the number of pages; the last page returns only a “prev” link.

Outcome: The original issue was resolved by moving pagination parameters out of headers and into the request parameters (page_info + limit), enabling proper page traversal.

New questions emerged: one user asked for a Qlik Sense looping example to fetch all orders; another asked how to obtain page_info in Postman; support clarified that page_info comes from the Link response header of the previous call and should be used in the next request.

Current status: Initial problem solved. Follow-up requests (code sample for Qlik Sense and practical parsing of page_info from the Link header) remain open without detailed, step-by-step parsing guidance.

Hi Awwdam,

I am also facing the same issue in postman. Using the count CURL - I have got the count for my customers and orders. Now I want to fetch the customers using pagination so how do I find the value forpage_info.

Here’s approach which I am following;

Step 1 - Get count - https://store.myshopify.com/admin/api/2024-04/orders/count.json?status=any

Step 2 - Get 1st 200 orders - https://store.myshopify.com/admin/api/2023-10/orders.json?limit=200

Step 3 - /admin/api/2021-10/orders.json?page_info={VALUE}&limit={<250} - now how I find / get the value for page_info

Kindly do let me know how can I run the same in Postman.
