Find by Nutrients not showing the correct results

If I send this request
https://spoonacular-recipe-food-nutrition-v1.p.mashape.com/recipes/findByIngredients?fillIngredients=false&ingredients=apples%2Cflour%2Csugar&limitLicense=false&number=5&ranking=1
almost all results are way out of the ranges I set in the request. Am I misinterpreting the results?

Hi,

so the problem is that mashape did not use the correct camel casing. Please change in your request “minfat” to “minFat” and “mincarbs” to “minCarbs” etc. (also for calories and protein, min and max). I changed that again in mashape now, hope this time it sticks.

Also I added offset and limit parameters for paging.

Also, in the same request findByNutrients is there a way to show more than the default 10 results? Now I’m only getting 10 random recipes while I would like to iterate over all the set of recipes which should be returned.

For example with this request
https://spoonacular-recipe-food-nutrition-v1.p.mashape.com/recipes/findByNutrients?maxcalories=250&maxcarbs=100&maxfat=20&maxprotein=100&mincalories=0&minCarbs=0&minfat=5&minProtein=0

I get recipes like
{
“id”: 167278,
“title”: “Double-Chocolate Cappuccino Cocoa”,
“image”: “https://spoonacular.com/recipeImages/Double-Chocolate-Cappuccino-Cocoa-167278.jpg”,
“imageType”: “jpg”,
“calories”: 394,
“protein”: “11g”,
“fat”: “25g”,
“carbs”: “36g”
}

where both calories and fat are out of the bounds I set. Almost all the results are like this.

Hey Gaianilu,

I checked the request but could not understand what the problem you are having is. Could you please clarify?
