Pagination¶

When the service has to return a collection of entries whose size exceeds that configured at the server.pageSize property of its configuration file, it will split the response into pages, returning only the first 1000 entries (the default value for page size).

The service will add to the response a next link, which will allow the client to request the next page of the results.

Next links include a $skiptoken parameter. They look like this: /denodo-odata.svc/movies/actor?$skiptoken=1000

If the original request includes query parameters, the result will show the next link with these parameters and a $skiptoken as in the examples below.

Example request: /denodo-odata.svc/movies/actor?$top=2&$skip=1.

Response:

... "@odata.nextLink":"/denodo-odata.svc/movies/actor?$top=2&$skip=1&$skiptoken=1000" ...

Besides using the configuration property server.pageSize, users can request another page size using the odata.maxpagesize preference in the Prefer header.
