Research direction

Start with the client.rules.lists.items.list() entry point and reproduce the issue using the example with a list larger than one page. Inspect the pagination handling and compare it with the cited SyncCursorPagination change; done means iteration returns all list items without requiring an oversized per_page value.

Description

Confirm this is a Python library issue and not an underlying Cloudflare API issue.

Describe the bug

Hi there,

It appears as though pagination is not working for client.rules.lists.items.list(). I am only getting the first page back. I've taken a look at the source code and it appears it could be related to the removal of SyncCursorPagination? I'm rusty as a dev so I wouldn't put money on it.

Please check out this PR though (here) which looks to have made a change. For now the list I have is around 480 items so I'm getting around this with client.rules.lists.items.list(account_id=account_id, list_id=rule_id, per_page=500) but this is a stop-gap solution at best.

See "To Reproduce" for a very basic reproduction.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

To Reproduce
import os
from cloudflare import Cloudflare

client = Cloudflare(
    api_token=os.environ.get("CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN"), # This is the default and can be omitted
)

ip_list = []
rule_id = "xxxxx"
account_id = "xxxxx"

for item in client.rules.lists.items.list(list_id=rule_id, account_id=account_id):
    ip_list.append(account)
print(ip_list)
