Pagination

All API v2.0 list endpoints return paginated responses by default. This improves performance and ensures that large datasets can be retrieved efficiently.


How Pagination Works

Every list endpoint responds with a standardized JSON structure that includes:

  • count: the total number of matching records

  • next: the URL to fetch the next page (or null if there is no next page)

  • previous: the URL to fetch the previous page (or null if you are on the first page)

  • results: an array containing the records in the current page


Example Paginated Response of a Case Query:

{
  "count": 473,
  "next": "https://clearinghouse.net/api/v2/case/?case_type=5039&page=3",
  "previous": "https://clearinghouse.net/api/v2/case/?case_type=5039&page=1",
  "results": [
    {
      "id": 15150,
      "name": "Pottinger v. City of Miami",
      "case_documents_url": "https://clearinghouse.net/api/v2/documents/?case=15150", // URL to retrieve documents related to this case.
      "case_dockets_url": "https://clearinghouse.net/api/v2/dockets/?case=15150", // URL to retrieve dockets related to this case.
      "case_resources_url": "https://clearinghouse.net/api/v2/resources/?case=15150", // URL to retrieve resources related to this case.
      "...": "..."
    },
    ...
    // More cases here
  ]
}
