Flutter – How to query github api url properly?

I want to make a Flutter app that uses the "Flutter" keyword to search GitHub and displays the top 50 most popular repositories.

What I tried —-
https://api.github.com/ this url has list of all available urls. Hence, from this list I took, https://api.github.com/search/repositories?q={query}{&page,per_page,sort,order} this url.
when I use this url just how it is inside of post man, I only get 29 results and if I set the page to 1 I still get 29 results and even if I set page = 2 and per_page = 25, I still get 29 results.

Please help, I need 50 results.

    You have to use the per_page parameter.

    https://api.github.com/search/repositories?q={query}&per_page=50

    Make sure you include the necessary dependencies in your Flutter project. You’ll need the http package for making HTTP requests. Add it to your pubspec.yaml file:

    dependencies:
 flutter:
 sdk: flutter
 http: ^0.13.3

    Create a new Dart file, such as github_api.dart, and import the necessary packages:

    import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
import 'dart:convert

    Define a function that will retrieve the repositories from the GitHub API:

    Future<List<dynamic>> fetchRepositories() async {
  final url = Uri.parse('https://api.github.com/search/repositories?q=flutter&per_page=50');
  final response = await http.get(url);

  if (response.statusCode == 200) {
    final Map<String, dynamic> data = json.decode(response.body);
    return data['items'];
  } else {
    throw Exception('Failed to fetch repositories');
  }
}
