I posted a bug with pagination few days back which made my reports API go into infinite loop

> [@Getting next\_page\_token with zero results](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/getting-next-page-token-with-zero-results/97507):
>
> I’m using report API of a specific user to get the meetings between a date range. /report/users/${userId}/meetings According to pagination specs, I will get next\_page\_token if there are results that can’t be fit into the current response. But i’m getting zero results along with next\_page\_token. For a request body { from: '2023-06-29', to: '2023-07-01', page\_size: 300, type: 'pastJoined' } I’m getting results { from: '2023-06-29', to: '2023-07-01', page\_count: 1, page\_size: 3…

Now, even with data API call is spiralling out making infinite calls producing the same data with different next\_page\_token

Found how to replicate the bug. This is happening if the dates are not in a month

developer team, please look into this. I debugged and explained you in which cases it is failing

Hi @skethan ,

Does this happen in other testing environment as well, like Postman?

The docs say the following:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/3X/a/f/af90cb975de662c94b3567947a836f5493c788eb.png)

Which for me, “one month” can be interpreted as 30 to 31 days from the `from` date, but if this behavior persists in Postman and we can verify on our end, I’ll put a request for them to change the language to be more clear.

Thanks so much.
