Hi.  
I have a question about getting Action for board.

1. Do Trello return result actions order by a date (from newest)?
2. If I have more than 1000 actions on board then Trello return only 1000 newest actions?

Yes, they should be returned chronologically starting with the most recent first.

Correct. To get the _next_ 1000, you’ll want to use the `before` parameter as mentioned here: [https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/trello/guides/rest-api/api-introduction/#paging](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/trello/guides/rest-api/api-introduction/#paging).

The `before` parameter can accept an object ID so you can pass it the ID of the last item returned from your previous request. For instance, you could do the following:
