A list in GraphQL isn't returned whole. The most common format is Connection: the field takes first and after, and returns edges (each with node and cursor) and pageInfo with hasNextPage and endCursor. The client takes endCursor and passes it as after in the next request. A cursor is an opaque string: the client doesn't parse it, only sends it back.
