property, it means that there may be more results, and you should pass that value as the

Note that the cursor may or may not be encrypted, but either way, it is not intended to be
decoded. Its internal structure is not a part of the public API, and may change without
notice. You should treat it as an opaque string and not attempt to craft your own cursors.
