Its currently 200 I want to increase to 1000. /api/v4/channels/{channel\_id}/members?page=0&per\_page=600 will give only 200 results. i.e. max allowed per\_page is 200. ---

Thanks @bibekdari! What’s your use case to return 1000 results? ---

I want all channel members at once so that I can sort them on my own way. actually by display name which I have created based on priority given to nickname \> full name \> username. like below. I want to sort users based on that display name so I need all users. I have 1000 users on my team that’s why I want to increase that page\_size. func displayName(user: User) -\> String { if user.nickname.exists { return user.nickname } if user.fullName.exists { return user.fullname } return user.username } ---

Hi @bibekdari, I would suggest making multiple requests until you get all the channel members you need e.g. `/api/v4/channels/{channel_id}/members?page=0&per_page=200`, `/api/v4/channels/{channel_id}/members?page=1&per_page=200`, and so on until you receive less than 200 results, meaning you’ve hit the end. Then once you have all the channel members you can sort them however you like ---
