Can I set an offset in the lookup of the iTunes API to paginate results, and what are the alternatives if this is not possible?

Yes, you can set an offset in the iTunes API lookup to paginate results. The iTunes API supports pagination using the limit and offset parameters. By specifying these parameters, you can control the number of results returned and the starting point for the results.

If the iTunes API does not support offset for a specific endpoint, you can consider alternative approaches such as:

Client-Side Pagination: Implement pagination logic on the client side by fetching a fixed number of results and then loading more as needed.

Custom Backend Logic: Create a custom backend service that handles pagination and interacts with the iTunes API, returning paginated results to the client.

By using these methods, you can effectively manage and paginate the lookup results from the iTunes API.
