How to complete the challenge GET /todos (200) ?_limit&_offset

How to issue a GET request on a top level entity endpoint and use pagination to skip records before returning a limited page.

GET /todos (200) ?_limit&_offset

Issue a GET request on the /todos end point with pagination limit and offset parameters.

• _limit controls the maximum number of todos returned
• _offset controls how many todos are skipped before returning results
• if _offset is not supplied, the default offset is 0
• this challenge is passed by requesting up to 5 todos after skipping 5 todos
• if your current session has fewer todos after the offset, the response will contain fewer todos

Basic Instructions

• Issue a GET request to end point "/todos"
  • https://apichallenges.eviltester.com/todos
• The request should have an X-CHALLENGER header to track challenge completion
• Add _limit=5 and _offset=5 as URL parameters:
  • https://apichallenges.eviltester.com/todos?_limit=5&_offset=5
• The response status code should be 200 because the request is accepted
• Check that the response body contains no more than 5 todos
