10 +=== Method Overview: Streamlined Tour Package Discovery and Booking ===
12 12  
12 +**Purpose:** This method outlines the most efficient process for locating and subsequently booking a tour package utilizing a minimal set of required parameters. It is designed to simplify the user interaction by reducing the complexity and volume of input data necessary for operation.
13 13  
14 +**Procedure:**
15 +
16 +1. **Initialization**: Start by specifying the essential parameters. This approach is engineered to streamline the search and booking process, focusing on the core data elements critical for identifying suitable tour packages.
17 +1. **Search Execution**: Deploy the method with the specified parameters to initiate the search. The system is optimized to process these inputs, conducting a targeted query across available tour packages to identify matches that align with the user's criteria.
18 +1. **Selection and Booking**: Upon receiving search results, the user can select a desired tour package. The booking process is then initiated with the minimal parameters already provided, ensuring a seamless transition from selection to confirmation.
19 +
20 +**Parameter Details:**
21 +
22 +* The parameters required for this method are intentionally limited to essential elements only, aiming to expedite the search and booking phases while maintaining effectiveness. Details on these parameters, including data types and usage instructions, are documented separately.
23 +
24 +**Usage Notes:**
25 +
26 +* This method is particularly beneficial for users seeking a straightforward and efficient path to tour package booking, minimizing decision fatigue and enhancing user experience.
27 +
28 +**Examples:**
29 +
30 +* Code examples and detailed step-by-step instructions for utilizing this method are available in the subsequent sections, providing practical guidance on implementing the streamlined tour package discovery and booking process.
31 +
32 +This documentation segment aims to facilitate developers and users in leveraging a simplified method for tour package exploration and booking, ensuring an efficient and user-friendly interaction with the system.

888 +**Overview:** The Paging and Caching mechanism is designed to efficiently manage data retrieval in a paginated format. This mechanism is essential for handling large datasets by dividing the data into manageable pages, thereby optimizing the performance and scalability of data retrieval operations.
889 +
890 +**Initial Request:**
891 +
892 +* **Purpose**: The first request initiates the paging process and is designed to fetch the initial set of data without utilizing a pagingId.
893 +* **Parameters**:
894 +** pagingId: Should be set to an empty string ("") to indicate that this is the initial request.
895 +** pageNumber: Indicates the specific page of data to retrieve, starting with 1.
896 +** pageRowCount: Specifies the number of results to be included on each page.
897 +
898 +**Example - First Request**:
899 +
900 +{{{{
901 + "pagingId": "",
902 +  "pageNumber": 1,
903 +  "pageRowCount": 10
904 +}
905 +}}}
906 +
907 +
908 +**Subsequent Requests with Caching:**
909 +
910 +* **Purpose**: Following the initial data retrieval, subsequent requests utilize the pagingId obtained from the previous response. This pagingId serves as a cache identifier, enabling the system to quickly access the relevant dataset and efficiently paginate through the data.
911 +* **Cache Utilization**:
912 +** Upon receiving a response, a pagingId value is provided. This pagingId should be used in subsequent requests to reference the cached data.
913 +** To navigate through the dataset, adjust the pageNumber while keeping the pagingId constant.
914 +** To refresh the dataset and clear the cache, initiate a new request without a pagingId.
915 +
916 +**Example - Request with Caching**:
917 +
918 +{{{ {
919 + "pagingId": "80",
920 + "pageNumber": 2, // Adjusted to fetch the next page
921 + "pageRowCount": 10
922 + }
923 +}}}
924 +
925 +
926 +**Cache Management:**
927 +
928 +* Clearing the cache and fetching a fresh set of data requires sending a new request with the pagingId parameter omitted or set to an empty string. This action resets the pagination and caching context.
929 +
930 +**Implementation Notes**:
931 +
932 +* The paging and caching mechanism significantly enhances data retrieval efficiency by minimizing server load and optimizing response times.
933 +* Developers should ensure that the pagingId is correctly managed between requests to maintain session continuity and data consistency.
934 +
935 +This documentation outlines the procedural framework for implementing a robust paging and caching strategy within data retrieval systems, detailing parameter usage and operational best practices for both initial and subsequent data fetch operations.
