Please note that listing entries requires the restriction to a time period with the parameters above. Additionally, you can filter the entries by parameters.

Because the result can have many entries, the use of page-by-page-output is enabled for this request.

Do also note, that GET parameters have to be URL encoded. Using cURL, the request has to look like in the following example. Most libraries and applications (REST clients) do encode the parameters automatically.
