an api i am calling has the next_page token for their pagination give the entire page url. How can i set this entire url into my manifest.yaml file for cursor pagination?

In Airbyte, you can handle this scenario using the
CursorPagination
strategy in your
manifest.yaml
file. You can extract the URL of the next page from the response headers and use it to fetch the next page of data. Here is an example of how you can set this up in your
manifest.yaml
file:
Copy code
yaml paginator:    type: "DefaultPaginator"    <...>    pagination_strategy:    type: "CursorPagination"    cursor_value: "{{ headers['urls']['next'] }}"    page_token_option:    type: "RequestPath"
In this example,
cursor_value
is set to
"{{ headers['urls']['next'] }}"
, which means it will extract the URL of the next page from the response headers. The
page_token_option
is set to
"RequestPath"
, which means the entire request URL for the subsequent request will be replaced by the cursor value. For example, if the endpoint to fetch data from is
<https://cloud.airbyte.com/api/get_data>
, the first request will be sent as
<https://cloud.airbyte.com/api/get_data>
. If the response's next url is
<https://cloud.airbyte.com/api/get_data?page=1&page_size=100>
, the next request will be sent as
<https://cloud.airbyte.com/api/get_data?page=1&page_size=100>
. You can find more details about this in the [Airbyte documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/connector-development/config-based/understanding-the-yaml-file/pagination).
