Hello,
In the REST API for RIPE Atlas probes [1], there is a metadata "limit" to set the number of items displayed in the API [2]. Previously I have used the "limit" field to get the details of all the registered probes (by specifying limit as the value in the field "total_count" in metadata) at once using this API.
Now the API works well with values of "limit" up to 100. But for any value greater than 100, the limit is automatically set to 100.
Could anyone help me understand why this could happen and how I can access the details of all the RIPE Atlas registered probes?
The limit has always been there in order to support pagination, it was just not enforced. Now it is. You can still flip through the pages presented -- it's trivial to construct the URL for the next page, but the response also contains a pointer for this. There's also the (newly announced) feature to access probe archives -- that may be a better approach, depending on your use case. Hope this helps, Robert

Thank you in advance for the help.
