You can also return tickets using cursor-based pagination. See [Incremental Ticket Export, Cursor Based](#incremental-ticket-export-cursor-based).\n\nThe results include tickets that were updated by the system. See\n[Excluding system-updated tickets](/documentation/ticketing/managing-tickets/using-the-incremental-export-api#excluding-system-updated-tickets-time-based-exports) in [Using the Incremental Exports API](/documentation/ticketing/managing-tickets/using-the-incremental-export-api).\n\nThe endpoint can return tickets with an `updated_at` time that's earlier than the\n`start_time` time. The reason is that the API compares the `start_time` with the ticket's\n`generated_timestamp` value, not its `updated_at` value. The `updated_at` value is\nupdated only if the update generates a [ticket event](#incremental-ticket-event-export).\nThe `generated_timestamp` value is updated for all ticket updates, including system\nupdates. If a system update occurs after a ticket event, the unchanged\n`updated_at` time will become earlier relative to the updated `generated_timestamp`\ntime.\n\n#### Allowed For\n\n * Admins\n\n#### Sideloading\n\nSee [Tickets sideloads](/documentation/ticketing/using-the-zendesk-api/side_loading/#supported-endpoints).
