Response contract

List responses include pagination metadata and can surface latency information when you add the `delay` query parameter.

Query controls

These parameters are supported consistently across collection routes.

page

1-indexed page number. Defaults to 1.

per_page

Number of records per page. Defaults to 10, max 50.

q

Optional text search against names, titles, descriptions, or tags where supported.

delay

Simulate latency in seconds (max 10s).

simulate_error

Force realistic failures like 429, 500, 401, or 503 for resilience testing.

pagination_style

Switch between page, cursor, and link-style pagination on supported collections.

cors

Use `cors=restrict` or `cors=preflight` to test browser integration edge cases.

Integration checklist

  • Use `page` and `per_page` when you need predictable list states.
  • Append `delay` to mimic loading and partial-rendering moments.
  • Point internal examples and SDKs to `/api/slack`.
  • Deep-link the selected method and path when sharing review links.
