   Hi @sabotagebeats, the pagination values you're referring to come from the V3 BC API, whereas this library is for the older V2 API and has not yet been updated for V3.

   For V2, best practice is to take the count and your desired page size to determine the total number of pages over which you'll need to paginate to get all objects, and then paginate them. As per your error message, the maximum page size is 250.

   To use the V3 API with this library, you can create an OAuthAPIConnection object directly and change the pathing to /v3/ like so:

   v3client = bigcommerce.connection.OAuthConnection(client_id=client_id,
                                                         store_hash=store_hash,
                                                         access_token=access_token,
                                                         api_path='/stores/{}/v3/{}')
   

   This will allow you to use the low-level CRUD interface to interact with the JSON directly, as a workaround for now. An API call would then look like this:

   products_response = v3client.get('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/catalog/products?limit=%s&page=%s'
                                      % (page_size, current_page))
   

   And you could access the pagination object in the response like this:

   products_response['meta']['pagination']

   Thanks this seems to work:

   pCounter = 1 #count the pages - 1st page
   totalpages = 1 #currently total pages is 1, changes upon loading api
   lookupcategory = 0 #0 for all
   
   api = bigcommerce.api.BigcommerceApi(client_id=clientID, store_hash=store_hash, access_token=accessToken)
   count = api.Products.count(category=lookupcategory)
   totalpages = count // 250
   totalpages = totalpages + 1
   print 'There are', count, 'items','in', totalpages, 'total pages'
   
   while pCounter <= totalpages:
       product = api.Products.all(category=lookupcategory, page=pCounter)
       pCounter += 1
