# Pagination

With endpoints that return a list of results, like **Places Search**, we may return pagination details in the response's header when there are additional results.

## Response Header

If there are additional pages and results available, the API will respond with a `link` field in the Response Header. This `link` value will contain a valid URL that can be used to acquire the next page of results. (The `cursor` parameter is a stable pointer to the next page of results.)

Use the API Explorer to help identify the Response Header and `link` for an applicable call. These are viewable by clicking on **Metadata**.

## Using the Limit Parameter

Using the `limit` parameter, you are able to limit the number of results returned per page.

For example, when using Places Search and specifying `limit=5`, then you will only receive a maximum of 5 places per page. Similarly, if you are looking for the top 5 results then you will specify `limit=5` and only use the first page returned.
