I have a query to get cities from country by country code.

While iam trying to get 9000 to 10000 sets it returns the result.

But when I try to get 10000 to 11000 or 10000 to 10001 it wont return anything. Stops at the point.

Please help me

If you want to extract data you should better use scroll API.
