Pagination

About Pagination

When a response from the REST API includes many results, Endor Labs paginates the results and returns a subset of the results. For example, GET /v1/namespaces/{tenant_meta.namespace}/findings only returns 100 findings from the given namespace even if the namespace has more than 100 findings. This makes the response easier to handle for servers and for people.

You can use the additional data from the list response to request additional pages of data.

This article explains how to request additional pages of results for paginated responses and how to change the number of results returned on each page.

Using page_size

The page_size field allows you to control the number of elements returned. By default, this value is 100, with a maximum of 500. It should be noted that the higher this value is, the longer it will take to get a result from Endor Labs.

• endorctl
• curl

endorctl api list --resource Finding \
  --page-size=50

curl --get \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $ENDOR_TOKEN" \
  --url "https://api.endorlabs.com/v1/namespaces/$ENDOR_NAMESPACE/findings?list_parameters.page_size=50"

Using page_token

When a response is paginated, the response includes a value for the field next_page_token. This value can then be used to fetch additional pages of results.

For example, the response to the above request contains the first 50 elements in the objects field along with the following values in the response field:

{
  "list": {
    "objects": [
        ...
    ],
    "response": {
      "next_page_id": "633dd86976186a89d64628c1",
      "next_page_token": 50
    }
  }
}

To access the next page of results, you can use the next_page_token value as the value of page_token in the next request. For example:

• endorctl
• curl

endorctl api list --resource Finding \
  --page-size=50 \
  --page-token=50

curl --get \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $ENDOR_TOKEN" \
  --url "https://api.endorlabs.com/v1/namespaces/$ENDOR_NAMESPACE/findings?list_parameters.page_size=50&list_parameters.page_token=50"

This returns 50 elements starting from the 50th element in the list. In this case, it returns elements 50 to 100.

Using page_id

The fields page_id and next_page_id provide the same capabilities as page_token and next_page_token. However, we recommend using page_id and next_page_id as they offer better performance for the request.

endorctl and the flag list-all

The CLI endorctl provides the flag --list-all that allows you to fetch all resources. Internally, the command sends multiple requests to get all resources.

endorctl api list --resource Finding --list-all
