💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'offset' instead of a number for limit.

Confusing 'page' with 'limit'.

The limit parameter controls how many items are returned per page. Setting it to 10 means the API returns 10 items.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'page' instead of a number for offset.

Confusing 'limit' with 'offset'.

The offset parameter tells the API to skip the first 20 items, so the next page starts from item 21.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a string like 'ten' instead of a number.

Using a negative number for offset.

The offset must be a positive number. Using 30 skips the first 30 items correctly. Strings or negative numbers cause errors.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a query string that requests 15 items starting from the 45th item.

Rest API

GET /items?limit=[1]&offset=[2]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Swapping limit and offset values.

Using offset less than limit.

Setting limit=15 requests 15 items per page. Setting offset=45 skips the first 45 items, so results start from item 46.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a query string that requests 25 items starting from the 50th item, sorted by date.

Rest API

GET /items?limit=[1]&offset=[2]&sort=[3]

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'name' instead of 'date' for sorting.

Mixing up limit and offset values.

Limit 25 means 25 items per page. Offset 50 skips the first 50 items. Sort by date orders the results by date.
