Since the docs are horrible I think making a megathread here with Q&As and best practices for endpoints would be nice. Would’ve certainly helped me when I started out.
What do you guys think?

What do you guys think?
i’m building a client, happy to help if i can, also to receive help! main issues i have had so far is how to actually use a number of the methods’ parameters, like limit (whats the max value?), page (how does pagination actually work?), etc. so far i have been storing any useful info about the API (like the valid values for a given type) in my own lists then querying them in my code.
but i figure the whole community is already about best practices the API / endpoints
Yeah but I think having a central post to aggregate common questions would be a benefit to everyone, especially new devs.
What’s the exact problem with the pagination? Basically you set the page param to the page you want to receive. The amount of pages is unknown to the client, you just know how many per Page you receive (the limit).
However, I’d recommend to make infinite scrollers anyway.
i’m just unsure how to actually correctly fetch the next set items in order to update display, whether for scrolling or paginating. for my client i just want to append at the bottom of the screen.
