While Loop Problem

[Benno2805]

Hi,
i'm very very new to python, but familiar with vba, so understand how basics work and in this case a loop.

I have the following code:

i = 1
num_page = 1
bar = progressbar.ProgressBar(max_value=response['meta']['total'], widgets=widgets).start()
print("Total number of records : ", response['meta']['total'])
while i <= response['meta']['total']:

...more code here to retrieve records...

bar.update(i)
        i = i + 1

Run ok, but then I get an error:

Error:
Total number of records :  494
 [Elapsed time: 0:06:18] |**********************************| (ETA:  00:00:00) Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\Admin\Downloads\patients_wip.py", line 118, in <module>
    bar.update(i)
  File "C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\Lib\site-packages\progressbar\bar.py", line 672, in update
    raise ValueError(
ValueError: Value 495 is out of range, should be between 0 and 494
 [Elapsed time: 0:06:19] |**********************************| (Time:  0:06:19) 

I've tried changing from
while i <= response
to
while i < response

I have made it print at each i, and it will print up to the total number of records.

Any advice and guidance would be greatly appreciated.
