I want, and need, to get list of tickets, agents, etc, with a method to get total list.

Example:
/tickets

I get 30 tickets, if I want to know I need to call again and again same method, then count list. A better method is a resource, tickets/count, contacts/count, with filter option, or better in the same answer get: Tickets ['total' = 29, 'page' = 1, 'next_page' = ] for this specific view as Zendesk.

We don't have these APIs currently, but we do intend to build them (as a separate endpoint) later this year.


It is necessary to have the same method for tickets API, filters, views, etc. If I get all tickets, we need to get the same all tickets count.

I.e.:

/tickets
[{...}]
/tickets_count
1000

And with filter:

/tickets?filter=watching
[{...}]
/tickets_count?filter=watching
150
...
Then I can make pagination and only request 30, page 1, etc.

Thank you.
