alerta returns only 50 heartbeats in cli and webui

[3hedgehogs]

Issue Summary
alerta command line tool and webui return only 50 heartbeats from more then 250 in DB

Environment
alerta 8.0.3
alerta client 8.0.0
requests 2.24.0
click 7.1.2

• Database: [Postgres]

Expected behavior
Return all Hearbeats

I have found as workaround is to set in .alertad.conf
QUERY_LIMIT=100000 DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE=100000
But probably api requests and 'alerta heartbeats --alert' have to work and return all heartbeats ?

Same issue here , thanks for the workaround. I'll test that.

$ alerta version
alerta 8.0.2
alerta client 8.0.0
requests 2.22.0
click 7.0

The backend API doesn't support paging for the heartbeats list so for now your only option is to increase the page size so that the returned response contains all the heartbeats. Setting it to 100,000 seems unnecessary. 500 or 1,000 would be more appropriate, I would have thought.
