https://api.themoviedb.org/4/list/{list_id} no longer returning object_ids

For awhile now, I've been using this endpoint and the successfully keying of the object_ids field.
Now that field is no longer returned in my response.
Was this a recent change?

Hey @dneal, indeed it was. There's no public use of those ID's, and that field was actually technically never supposed to be made public (it was a bug that slipped in a few years ago).

Hi, I was also using this object_ids field, because it was really useful to be able to get the ids of all the items in the list in only one call. Now that it has been removed, is there another way to do it without having to loop on all the pages of the list ? It looks like it would be a waiste of resources to be forced to loop on all the list pages just to get the ids of all the items inside it.
Thanks!
