Searching Images over a large multi-polygon over multiple years

This question was originally asked June 15, 2022 13:55 by user Amninder Singh.

Hi, 

I am new to using Planet API. I am trying to search for imagery over a multipolygon GeoJSON (which consists of ~10,000 small polygons across the United States) from 2019 to 2021. My goal is to deliver this imagery to the Google Earth Engine for analysis. Here is a snippet of code that I am using with DataAPI for quick search:

item_type = "PSScene4Band"# API request objectsearch_request = {  "item_types": [item_type],  "filter": combined_filter}# POST requestsearch_result = requests.post(    'https://api.planet.com/data/v1/quick-search',    auth=HTTPBasicAuth(PLANET_API_KEY, ''),    json=search_request)

ids = [f["id"] for f in search_result.json()["features"]]

The above section of code will not display more than 250 ids (I think this is the default). Any way I can obtain all the resulting 'ids'?

Next, I am creating a request using the Orders API using the `ids`. 

request = {     "name":"cliptryGEE",   "products":[      {           "item_ids":ids,         "item_type":"PSScene4Band",         "product_bundle":"analytic_sr_udm2"      }   ],   "tools": [      {"clip": {        "aoi": multipoly      }}      ],   "delivery": {        "google_earth_engine": {            "project": "project-name",            "collection": "ic_name",             "notifications": {"email": True}        }    }}

I guess my question is -  what is the best way to approach this problem? Since I am querying over a lot of images, this will mean that I am generating a large number of "item_ids" (>250). I may have to divide this problem into chunks, but not sure what is the best way.

I would appreciate any help! Thanks
