Pagination? More like 'pain-ination'! But seriously, this is a common pattern, and it's important to know how to handle it properly.

Wait, so we have to make multiple API calls just to get all the data? That sounds like a lot of work. Can't they just give us one giant response?

Finally, an answer that doesn't involve scrolling through endless pages of data! Pagination is the way to go, and this solution sounds straightforward.

Hmm, I was a bit confused about how to handle pagination, but this explanation makes sense. I'll have to remember to check the response headers for the next page URL.

A) Yes, because that's how pagination works in API calls. You have to keep calling the next page until all objects are retrieved.

Yes, that's right! Pagination is a common way to handle large datasets in API responses. You need to follow the links provided in the response headers to retrieve all the data.
