Hello everyone! Similar to this topic, I’m looking for the proper way to do pagination on the /latest.json (Topics) endpoint, specifically knowing what’s the last page. I’ve figured out that, when there are more results to be fetched, the response contains a "more_topics_url": "/latest?page=X" for the next page. However, from my tests, seems like even when there are no more results, we get another page under this field. Is there a proper way to know when we hit the last page? Thanks in advance!

[תמונה] fixr: However, from my tests, seems like even when there are no more results, we get another page under this field. I can’t reproduce this. For example, you can request https://meta.discourse.org/c/site-feedback/blog/l/latest.json?page=1 that contains 30 topics and a more_topics_url with "/c/site-feedback/blog/l/latest?page=2". Then you request that and get 25 more topics and a missing more_topics_url because it’s the end.

Thanks for such quick response and for checking it out! You’re right. I was messing on my development environment on the per_page settings trying to avoid creating 30+ topics to test this, and came across this method, but changing it there seems to have the side-effect I mentioned, though returning the amount of results I set there. Seems like passing ?per_page=X doesn’t have any effect on this endpoint (following your example: https://meta.discourse.org/c/site-feedback/blog/l/latest.json?page=1&per_page=5, still returns 30 rows). Is there a proper way to adjust this setting? Thanks again in advance!

Would also be interested in this per_page stuff.
