API pagination
Pagination in n8n's public REST API.
API pagination
The default page size is 100 results. You can change the page size limit. The maximum permitted size is 250.
When a response contains more than one page, it includes a cursor, which you can use to request the next pages.
For example, say you want to get all active workflows, 150 at a time.
Get the first page:
# For a self-hosted n8n instance
curl -X 'GET' \
'<N8N_HOST>:<N8N_PORT>/<N8N_PATH>/api/v<version-number>/workflows?active=true&limit=150' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H 'X-N8N-API-KEY: <your-api-key>'
# For n8n Cloud
curl -X 'GET' \
'<your-cloud-instance>/api/v<version-number>/workflows?active=true&limit=150' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H 'X-N8N-API-KEY: <your-api-key>'The response is in JSON format, and includes a nextCursor value. This is an example response.
{
"data": [
// The response contains an object for each workflow
{
// Workflow data
}
],
"nextCursor": "MTIzZTQ1NjctZTg5Yi0xMmQzLWE0NTYtNDI2NjE0MTc0MDA"
}Then to request the next page:
# For a self-hosted n8n instance
curl -X 'GET' \
'<N8N_HOST>:<N8N_PORT>/<N8N_PATH>/api/v<version-number>/workflows?active=true&limit=150&cursor=MTIzZTQ1NjctZTg5Yi0xMmQzLWE0NTYtNDI2NjE0MTc0MDA' \
-H 'accept: application/json'
# For n8n Cloud
curl -X 'GET' \
'<your-cloud-instance>/api/v<version-number>/workflows?active=true&limit=150&cursor=MTIzZTQ1NjctZTg5Yi0xMmQzLWE0NTYtNDI2NjE0MTc0MDA' \
-H 'accept: application/json'Last updated on
