How can handle pagination in Azure Rest API for hybird VM

Question

Scenario:
I want to handle pagination for the Azure REST API, which may return 1000 records per page by default. I need to retrieve data for a specified page. For instance, I want to get 500 records per page. So, if there are 5000 records, that would be 10 pages in total. Now, if I want to retrieve data from page number 5, it should return 500 records. How can I achieve this?

Hi @Akash Sharma

If '$top' and '$skip' are not applicable to the Azure Hybrid REST API, then this API might not support manual pagination. You can only rely on nextLink to handle pagination until all pages are fetched.

Hope this helps.
