# Pagination

To return a defined number of objects for any Dataloy resource it has to be specified in the URL the page number, **pageNumber** parameter, and the number of objects that the page has to contain, **limit** parameter. For example:

[\
/ws/rest/Document?pageNumber=1\&limit=10\&filter=documentAmount(GT)100000](http://localhost:8080/ws/rest/Document?\&pageNumber=1\&limit=10\&filter=documentAmount\(GT\)100000)

it will return the first page containing at max 10 Document objects having the property documentAmount greater than 100000. In the response will be added an header parameter called **totalObjectsNumber** that indicates the total number of objects of the endpoint.

From **API 5.18** is possible to avoid to get **totalObjectsNumber**  sending the HTTP header parameter **noCount = YES,** this will allow a bit better performance.

Another example:

[/ws/rest/Vessel?filter=flag.countryCode(EQ)HK\&pageNumber=4\&limit=10](http://localhost:8080/ws/rest/Vessel?filter=flag.countryCode\(EQ\)HK\&pageNumber=4\&limit=10)

<br>

it will return the fourth page containing at max 10 Vessels objects having the countryCode property equals to EQ.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://api.dataloy.com/api-release-8.15/dataloy-rest-api/pagination.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
