how to do pagination in MS Dynamics REST APIs

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Dishant Sharma 30
I want to implement pagination in the API:
 
[dynamics_instance_url]/api/data/v9.0/roles?$select=_businessunitid_value,roleid
 
Currently, it is giving me a list of all the security roles inside the MS Dynamics instance. I want to get 50 results at a time. I tried implementing the
$top and $skip query parameters but, the $skip parameter is only supported in the CRM platform. 
 
How can I implement the pagination on the returned response irrespective of the Dynamics platform?

    Hi Partner,
    Please refer to the following link:
    Dataverse doesn't support the $skip query option, so you can't use the the combination of $top and $skip for paging.
    1.Paging Regular Queries
    Use the Prefer: odata.maxpagesize request header to control the number of records returned. 
    2.Paging with FetchXML
    I hope you can verify my answer if it helps you! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
    Regards,
    Leah
