$skip Parameter

When you retrieve records from MYOB Acumatica by using the contract-based REST API, you use the $skip parameter to specify the number of records to be skipped from the list of returned records. That is, if you specify N as the value of this parameter, the first N records will be skipped from the list of returned records.

If you use the $skip and $top parameters together, the $skip parameter is applied first.

By using the $skip and $top parameters, you can implement the pagination of records. However, there is no parameter to learn the number of records that meet a particular request.

Example: Skipping the First Five Records

If you want to skip the first five records from the list and obtain the rest of the records, you use the following parameter string: $skip=5.
