We have implemented a solution for our client that archives activities from Dynamics 365 to an Azure Cosmos DB. We are displaying the archived activities from the Azure Cosmos DB using their REST API within a Dynamics 365 plugin and a Virtual Entity. We recently tried to implement paging, but found that the Azure Cosmos DB only supports it using this method: Querying Azure Cosmos DB resources using the REST API | Microsoft Docs

Since that method requires a response token to retrieve the next page and Dynamics 365 plugins cannot receive responses, we're looking to understand what other options are available for us to implement paging with the Azure Cosmos data within Dynamics 365 using supported methods.
