is it possible to set the batch size for queries via REST API? The REST API Query documentation http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api_rest/Content/resources_query.htm states For more information on query batch sizes, see Changing the Batch Size in Queries in the SOAP API Developer's Guide. . I know that I can set the QueryOptions via SOAP header, but is it possible to set it for REST somehow?

C# Sample for the SOAP API

private void queryOptionsSample() 
{
    binding.QueryOptionsValue = new QueryOptions();

    binding.QueryOptionsValue.batchSize = 250;
    binding.QueryOptionsValue.batchSizeSpecified = true;
}

Any help and example would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Reading this document we can do a batch query in REST API too

If the initial query returns only part of the results, the end of the response will contain a field called nextRecordsUrl.

For example, you might find this attribute at the end of your query: "nextRecordsUrl" : "/services/data/v20.0/query/01gD0000002HU6KIAW-2000"

In such cases, request the next batch of records and repeat until all records have been retrieved. These requests use nextRecordsUrl, and do not include any parameters.

Update:

Other way would be to build apex REST SERVICE yourself using OFFSET in query .

yes, but whats not the question. I am after changing the batch size of the query, so instead of receiving 2000 records per page, I just want to receive 150, without using offset –  Seb__Wagner Aug 14 at 8:37
 
I think its by default 500 or so .It chunks depending on the size .Other way would be to build apex REST SERVICE yourself using OFFSET . –  Mohith Kumar Aug 14 at 8:39
