I am using Google Custom Search api in my application, sample search link for searching profile in LinkedIn.
I need to skip first ten pages and get the next ten pages. Basic idea is to skip first 1000 records, I want the next 1000 records.
Is there any way to skip the first 10 pages and get the next ten pages in the result?
Even though not specifically mentioned in the API description, the Google GSA Search Protocol Reference is pretty explicit about this limitation:
The maximum number of results available for a query is 1,000, i.e., the value of the start parameter added to the value of the num parameter cannot exceed 1,000.
However, if all you need is more than 1,000 records (as you indicated) you can structure your query to return a well-defined non-overlapping subset of potential results, then piece together the overall result.
A simple example would segment results by date. For the custom query you posted, appending something like &sort=date:r:20100101:20101231 would return 1,000 results from the year 2010. If you repeat this for 2011, you would have a total of 2,000 results.
