Yet another signature problem

[Jared McArthur]

Working on a petition with > 200k signatures, but am only able to collect ~150k sigs. Response data shows 423 total pages, but the signature set starts showing up empty on page 308. Where are the signatures? Why can't we get more than 500 signatures at a time? And why am I only getting 75% of my data back?

Here is the response for page 308:

{u'signatures': [], u'prev_page_endpoint': u'https://api.change.org/v1/petitions/3562547/signatures?page=307&page_size=500', u'total_pages': 423, u'signature_count': 211405, u'next_page_endpoint': u'https://api.change.org/v1/petitions/3562547/signatures?page=309&page_size=500', u'page': 308}

Hi Jared,

The count returned is the total number of signatures on the petition, but only signatures that were submitted as "publicly viewable" on the site can be returned by the API. That's what causes the difference between the count and the number you can fetch.
