Hi, can’t seem to get this API GET to work… Here is how the first response is:

It usually returns Data as empty and a Cursor. When Adding this cursor to the path, then you get Data and another Cursor for the next page.

How do I go about that in Parabola?

Here is the API command example (no auth required): [https://api.helium.io/v1/hotspots/112Y6oFaZFeey5vJLtfZuJENHYR9hDCFdD5uK9XKLVyr8phd2dCq/activity](https://api.helium.io/v1/hotspots/112Y6oFaZFeey5vJLtfZuJENHYR9hDCFdD5uK9XKLVyr8phd2dCq/activity)

Oops, got it.

For others, I had “Top Level Key” set as Data, so Parabola returned empty and no Cursor to use. Remove the Top Level Key selection and it worked.
