Reading the server

One querying idiom — get, filter, sort, page — that works on every endpoint.

6 stops

Run
get() returns one page, not the site
Know exactly how much of the site a plain get() actually returned — and never ship an audit that silently under-counts.
Run
Walk everything with Pager and .all()
Iterate every workbook, user, or data source on a site without ever thinking about page numbers.
Anchor
Nothing on the site is silently missing from your script.
Run
RequestOptions: the knob behind every request
Control page size and page number directly — and recognize the object that filtering and sorting are built on.
Run
Filter on the server with .filter()
Ask for exactly the content you mean — one owner, one tag, everything stale — instead of downloading the site and looping.
Run
Sort with order_by, slice like a list
Get the ten most recently updated workbooks — or the ten longest-dormant users — in two lines.
Anchor
The server does the filtering and sorting now — your loops only see answers.
Run
The site audit: filter, sort, CSV
Produce a stale-content report your team can open in Excel — one script, no clicking through the UI, re-runnable every Monday.
Summit
You can audit a site in one script.
