Limit not working while fetching data using REST API

[Shruti Anantwar]

While fetching data usin REST calls from fisheye and crucile, the limit parameter is not working. Is there any alternative for it?

Hi Shruti,

Please note not every FishEye/Crucible REST API method supports pagination, the ones that do support have it explicitely mentioned in the documentation. 

Let me know what URL are you trying to hit so I can clarify if pagination is supported for this endpoint or if there is alternative paginated endpoint that could be used instead.

Hi, I tried limiting data while fetching repositories. Here's the query,

http://localhost:8060/rest-service-fe/repositories-v1?limit=1

Inspite of applying limit=1, I'm getting all the list of repositories. I am facing same issue with other queries as well (Eg. users, revisionInfo etc).

note GET request to https://docs.atlassian.com/fisheye-crucible/latest/wadl/fisheye.html#rest-service-fe:repositories-v1 resource lists all the repositories, while GET request to similar https://docs.atlassian.com/fisheye-crucible/latest/wadl/fecru.html#rest-service-fecru:admin:repositories resource retrieves a page of repositories.  The latter use paginated API.

Similary use https://docs.atlassian.com/fisheye-crucible/latest/wadl/fecru.html#rest-service-fecru:admin:users to retrieve page of users etc.

Hope that helps
