Use this page when you need the shared behavior behind the generated Control Plane reference, not just one endpoint family.

Pagination Shapes

The Control Plane surface currently exposes two pagination patterns:
  • page/size: numbered pages such as tickets and some admin list routes
  • page-token / page-size: cursor-style traversal such as billing transaction history
Examples:
tm --output json tickets list --status TICKET_STATUS_OPEN --page 1 --size 20
tm --output json billing transactions list --page-size 25 --page-token "$NEXT_PAGE_TOKEN"
Do not assume every list route uses the same pagination contract. Check the route-specific page first.

Retry And Rate-Limit Behavior

Control Plane callers should expect transient failures and explicit rate limiting:
  • 429 means the server is rate limiting the request
  • if the response includes Retry-After, wait for that server-provided delay before retrying
  • 500, 502, 503, and 504 can also be transient
The SDK and CLI only retry idempotent requests when retries are explicitly enabled. Non-idempotent writes should use explicit caller-side safeguards against duplicate effects.

SDK And CLI Notes

  • SDK transport honors Retry-After for idempotent requests and caps long delays
  • CLI --max-retries applies only to idempotent requests
  • for automation, prefer tm --output json and pass pagination values explicitly
