**Sorting:**
Use `sort` and `direction` to control the order of results.
Supported sort fields: `createdAt` (default), `name`.

**Filtering:**

**Pagination:**
This endpoint uses cursor-based pagination for efficient traversal of large datasets.
- Use the `paging.cursors.after` value from the response to get the next page
