Documented steps
Auth: api-key header if API-key auth is enabled (always required on Qdrant Cloud); no auth on an unsecured local instance.
Retrieve specific points by ID: curl -X POST http://localhost:6333/collections/{collection_name}/points -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"ids": [0, 3, 100]}' — add with_vectors / with_payload booleans to control returned data
Single known ID convenience route: GET /collections/{collection_name}/points/{point_id}
Scroll in batches: curl -X POST http://localhost:6333/collections/{collection_name}/points/scroll -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"limit": 100, "with_payload": true, "with_vector": false}'
Points come back sorted by ID; pass the response's next_page_offset as offset in the next scroll request
Stop when next_page_offset is null — no more pages
Add a filter object to the scroll body to page through only matching points (pair with a payload index for performance)

Known gotchas
Retrieving by ID uses POST on /points (not GET), except the single-ID GET /points/{point_id} route
Scroll pagination threads next_page_offset manually — there is no separate cursor token
No documented default for scroll limit — always set it explicitly
Parameter naming differs per endpoint (with_vectors on ID retrieval vs with_vector on scroll) — double-check per endpoint or data is silently omitted
