X-Pagination-Total-Pages response header when the number of items per bucket is limited

Support
1

Hello,

Following the issue discussed in https://community.vikunja.io/t/typesense-250-hits-limit, I decided to reset the VIKUNJA_SERVICE_MAXITEMSPERPAGE to 50. I am currently making an API request to retrieve tasks in a project via the /projects/{id}/views/{view}/tasks endpoint.

My question is: when a bucket contains more than 50 items, the response is limited to 50 items per bucket, and the X-Pagination-Total-Pages response header always shows a value of 1. If I add the query parameter /projects/{id}/views/{view}/tasks?page=2 to fetch the next set of 50 items from all buckets with more than 50 items, I still only receive the first 50 items.

How can I paginate to retrieve the next 50 items for all buckets using this endpoint?

That’s because the pagination value in that case is related to the number of buckets, not the number of tasks in a bucket.

To fetch tasks for a single bucket, you’ll need to do a request with a filter for buckets like this: bucket_id = 42 and set the page parameter to 2 (or which page you want to query).

The full url would look something like this:

https://try.vikunja.io/api/v1/projects/53/views/456/tasks?sort_by[]=position&order_by[]=asc&filter=bucket_id+%3D+68&page=2

Take a look at how the frontend loads the tasks in buckets when you scroll, that’s what we do there.
