Hello there! I’m running a forum on which, in one of all the categories, users are posting a lot of youtube links. I would love to build some third-party youtube player on top of that but can’t quite invent how could i fetch such data by a third party app. The most obvious way of doing that would be to use a search API and search for “[youtube.com](http://youtube.com)” string in desired category but, if i understand discourse code well, there is a limit of search results that can be fetched. It’s hardcoded to 50 results i think. And with that info given, the only way that comes to my mind is to fetch search results periodically with a CRON and store them on that third-party app side. But, any other ideas are welcome 🙂 Anyway - are you guys planning to support search API pagination? --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/paginating-api-search-results/49066)._
