Youtube API PlaylistItems does not return nextPageToken

I'm using YouTube API documentation to get playlist items (https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/playlistItems/list).

But the API does not return the nextPageToken and prevPageToken properties. So I can't call the next playlist page.

The API call:

https://youtube.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?part=snippet&playlistId=RDMMfHI8X4OXluQ&key=...

According to my experience the nextPageToken and prevPageToken properties can be absent

  1. if the number of items is less than 50 (which is by default) or
  2. if you specify maxResults, then if the number of items is less then specified

You can compare:

https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?maxResults=50&playlistId=PL3CF77047DEE78C87&part=snippet,id&type=video&fields=*&key={{YOUTUBE_API_KEY}}

and

https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?maxResults=5playlistId=PL3CF77047DEE78C87&part=snippet,id&type=video&fields=*&key={{YOUTUBE_API_KEY}}
