Pagination

On endpoints that support pagination, you can specify a page number by using the page query parameter. Pages are numbered starting from 1. If you pass in a number outside of the bounds of the amount of pages in the result, it will default to the maximum or minimum page, depending on which direction your page number was out of bounds by.

Pagination information is contained within the link header in the API response. No link header will be sent if a search only yields 1 page
