'Get Connections as Admin' action missing option to use NextLink / Skiptoken?

Hi all,
 
I'm planning to use 'Power Apps for Admins' connector in Power Automate to list all the apps and connections from some Power Platform environments.

 
 Action 'Get Apps as Admin' gives me option to use 'Skip token'-parameter to actually fetch all the apps in case there are many and paging approach is needed. This is also documented for this action at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/connectors/powerappsforadmins/#get-apps-as-admin.
 
However when using 'Get Connections as Admin' action there are no option for using 'Skip token'-parameter. Also the max value for 'Page size' is 1000 which is not even close what is needed. This setup makes this action useless. What is really weird - If I check the actual response of 'Get Connections as Admin' action, in my case I can see that nextLink (with skiptoken) value is in place in the JSON response but like said it is not usable through action itself.
 
{
"statusCode": 200,
"headers": {},
"body": {
"value": [], (457 items)
"nextLink": "https://flow-apim-europe-002-westeurope-01.azure-apim.net/***"
}
 
I think I could call provided nextLink url/endpoint with simple HTTP connector separately but this scenario requires creation of separate Azure Entra ID app registration with proper API permission, getting authentication token etc. so it doesn't make much sense and causes a lot of extra work (since we already have ready made action).
 
It this how 'Get Connections as Admin' really "works" or am I missing something?

    You can also use Graph API to get these specifically.
     
    I understand the App registration concern, but I wouldn't think about it too much, you always setup a policy to remind you to check if this feature is fixed.
     
    :-( Or maybe open a ticket in M365 Admin and maybe they can raise a bug for you or give you a solution.
     
    For now, just curious if you have more than 250 connections, do you think maybe you need to clean some up and re-use others?
     
    Just thoughts

    Have you tried enabling pagination in the settings?
