Need help to understand the documentation of Sentry API

Question

I am making an API request to the sentry API, like this:

_URL = "https://sentry.io/api/0/projects/aaaa-7y/aaaa/issues/"
headers = {'Authorization': 'Bearer 11111111111111111111111', 'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
params = {"statsPeriod":"24h", 'cursor':'100:-1:1'}

r = requests.get(url = _URL, headers = headers, params=params, verify=False) 
data = r.json()

and I realized that I am only getting 100 results despite I have more in the endpoint UI.
According to the documentation, I should use the pagination: https://docs.sentry.io/api/pagination/ but I am having a really good time trying to understand how to implement it because the response does not provide anything that I can use for pagination. What I am missing in my API request.

See the start of the response. I was expecting to see something like rel="previous"; results="false"; according to the documentation.

Answer 1

If in first example you switch bash to http then you see:

It sends this as HTTP header, not in response/JSON.

You need:

link = r.headers['Link']        # it raises error when `Link` doesn't exist

or safer

link = r.headers.get('Link')    # it gives `None` when `Link` doesn't exist

Thanks for your support.
For anyone’s reference with Sentry’s API, I ended up doing this to fetch data and paginate:

data_set=[]

    while r.links['next']['results'] == "true":
        r = requests.get(r.links['next']['url'], headers = headers, params=params, verify=False) 
        data = r.json()
        for req in data:
            data_set.append(req)
