Cursor-based pagination

Most API endpoints return a cursor which can be used to get the previous or next page of results. This is usually better than using since_id to paginate because:
  • the results are always ordered in descending order (newest first)
  • no need to manually keep track of the last ID
  • null cursor indicate that no more results are available
  • the cursor includes any filters applied in the initial request, so subsequent requests need only provide the single cursor param to retrieve the next page with the same filters applied
These endpoints include a cursor property in the response object, for example: 
{
  "customers": [...],
  "cursor": {
    "prev": null,
    "next": "eyJsYXN0SWQiOjE0NjgsImRpcmVjdGlvbiI6Im5leHQifQ"
  }
}
If either cursor is null it means there are no more pages available in that direction.
Cusors are also included in the Link header of the response. This is useful if you are retrieving results in CSV format, in which case the response body will not include the cursors
To retrieve the previous or next page of results, pass the cursor as a cursor query param. You do not need to pass any other params; if you initially provided other params to filter the response, these will be part of the cursor already, and any other filtering params will be ignored. Only the limit parameter will be recognized. For example: 
curl \
  --url 'https://api.loyaltylion.com/v2/customers?cursor=eyJsYXN0SWQiOjE0NjgsImRpcmVjdGlvbiI6Im5leHQifQ' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json'

​
since_id parameter pagination

All collection endpoints support a since_id parameter. When a since_id is specified, the collection is ordered by id ascending, and contains only resources with an id greater than the specified since_id. To fully paginate through a collection, follow the algorithm:
  1. Initialize your since_id to 0
  2. Specify a limit
  3. Make a request with your current since_id and limit
  4. If the number of resources returned is less than your limit, finish
  5. Otherwise, set since_id equal to the id of the last resource in the response and repeat

Example

Some data is omitted from the example responses for clarity.
curl \
--url 'https://api.loyaltylion.com/v2/customers?since_id=0&limit=2' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json'
