How to get the next page results of the blogger API posts/search?

I'm making the following request:

https://www.googleapis.com/blogger/v3/blogs/(blogId)/posts/search?key=(myKey)&q=(someSearchTerm)

and I'm getting 10 items at the result and a nextPageToken field.

How can I get the next 10 items with this page token?

update

when i add the nextPageToken string with the parameter pageToken to the url like so:

https://www.googleapis.com/blogger/v3/blogs/(blogId)/posts/search?key=(myKey)&q=(someSearchTerm)&pageToken=(stringOfNextPageToken)

nothing happens and i get the same 10 items.

Definitely, it's not a bug, though it needs more clarification, you can refer to this document from Blogger API v3 here.

to get the pagination work you need to call the API with maxResults={pageSize} then you will get an extra value in the response 'nextPageToken', you should use the value of this field and pass it with. 'pageToken' NOT 'nextPageToken'

https://blablabla?maxResults=10&pageToken={VALUE_OF_NEXTPAGETOKEN}

when you reach the end of the list you won't get the nextPageToken anymore and it means nothing more to fetch.

When using:

{Google API URL}/posts/?{parameters}&pageToken={nextPageToken}

JSON data response contains the next items. Which is the expected behavior, as described in Pagination in Blogger Api V3.

But when using :

{Google API URL}/posts/search/?{parameters}&pageToken={nextPageToken}

JSON data response contains the same items again. Looks like pageToken is ignored by /posts/search/.

I opened an issue in Google API Github.

Updated : In the mean time, I'm using standard Blogger feeds {Blog URL}/feeds/posts/ and forgot about using the Google API v3.
