Rest API - Pagination Patterns

Consider this API call:
GET /api/products?cursor=abc123&limit=3
If the response returns 3 items and a new cursor, what does this indicate?

AThe cursor parameter was invalid

BThis is the last page of results

CThe limit parameter was ignored

DThere are more items after the current page to fetch

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand limit and cursor usage
The limit=3 means the client requested 3 items. Receiving exactly 3 items means the page is full.
Step 2: Interpret presence of new cursor
A new cursor in the response means there are more items to fetch after these 3.
Final Answer:
There are more items after the current page to fetch -> Option D
Quick Check:
New cursor + full page = more items available [OK]

Quick Trick: New cursor means more data; no cursor means last page [OK]
