Restful Query returning to few results, not max size limit

Ben_vy7b4s

When attempting to use the restful API using postman I get far too few results compared to running the same query in a search.

I am using a fairly ambiguous JQL "project = "ITSD" AND created >= startOfMonth(-6)"

When I use this in the Search box I get over 11,000 results,

In the restful query the total displays as 283

restful query: https://*Company*.com.au/jira/rest/api/2/search?jql=project = "ITSD" AND created >= startOfMonth(-6)

I am using Basic Authentication and don't get any authentication errors.

You have to cycle through the results as everything is done in pagination, so you don't get a chunky data. That's what the parameters startAt is used for to cycle through each record. Also set a maxResults so you can display a certain number of results while cycling through each record.
