list_members() not returning all members

[MoHayat]

Hello,

I tried using the list_members() function to retrieve 87 users from a specific list, but all I got were the first 20 users. I tried to see whether the full list was split into pages but it wasn't. Is that a mistake on my end or is there some issue with obtaining the data?

Thanks for the help.

I'm unable to reproduce this.
Are you sure you're not only getting the first page? Have you tried specifying the count parameter?
The default is 20, so that's how many you would get from the first page without specifying it.
The alternative is to retrieve each page of results, e.g. via a Cursor.
Also note, "Private list members will only be shown if the authenticated user owns the specified list."

I see, I was able to get the full list using a Cursor.

thanks for the help!
