IG Rest API historical prices request will only return 20 observations at a time

[colintbowers]

The following url string for a HTTP GET request for historical price data via the rest api:

"https://api.ig.com/gateway/deal/prices/IX.D.ASX.IFT.IP?resolution=MINUTE&from=2023-11-14&to=2023-11-15&max=9999"

will only return 20 observations.

In fact, no matter what I try, I can't seem to get more than 20 observations in one go. I've checked the allowance and I have thousands left. There just appears to be some sort of cap preventing me from getting more than 20 observations at a time.

If anyone can see what is wrong, I'd be much obliged.

Cheers,

Colin

Price data is paged, and the default page size is 20. It is all in the docs

Thanks so much for the quick response. Yep, setting pageSize=0 sorted the issue out for me. I never understood what that option did until now. Thanks again!
