Hi there,

The default ‘limit’ value is set at 50, thee is a filter you can use to increase that:

FHEE__EED_Core_Rest_Api__get_default_query_limit

However, be careful as you will start to run into timeouts as you increase the value higher.

You can also set the limit within the query itself, for example:

/wp-json/ee/v4.8.36/registrations?limit=0,100

The first value is the offset, the second is the limit, so 0,100 returns rows 1-100, and 50,100 returns rows 51-100

i am curious if there is a way to automate the requests and pull only new data each API call?

I’m not sure I follow, how would you define ‘new’ data?

If I send a request to /wp-json/ee/v4.8.36/registrations/

And then you sent a request to /wp-json/ee/v4.8.36/registrations/

How does EE know the different between the two to define ‘new’ registrations?

REST API’s are stateless, which basically means that rather than relying on the server to remember the previous requests, REST requires each request to contain all of the info needed for the server to understand that request. So you would need ‘something’ within the request to define what is ‘new’ and I’m sure how you would do it, you could possibly use REG_date and do requests between a specific time but even then you would still end up with an overlap with multiple requests.
