Originally created by @nelis249 on GitHub (Feb 12, 2024).

Deployment Type

Self-hosted

NetBox Version

v3.7.2

Python Version

3.11

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create 200 devices (probably works on other objects).
  2. Set the Maximum page size to 50 in the config page.
  3. Make an api call that has the limit=0 flag (or anything over 50) eg https://netbox/api/dcim/devices/?limit=0
  4. Results returned are 50.

Expected Behavior

Expected behavior is that the limit=0 (or any number) should override the max page size and return the limit specified.

Observed Behavior

Only 50 results returned which is not the specified limit size.

Note: this seems like this is similar to this issue: https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/7209

This is working as intended. The MAX_PAGE_SIZE parameter is exactly that: The maximum permissible page size. It exists to enforce a maximum value for the limit query parameter.
