The API to List Hotspot Cities is missing some data

[Working4u]

The API to List Hotspot Cities is missing some data. Only the cities that have the fist letter after "S" are returned.

I tried to get the complete list of cities that have hotspots using
GET https://api.helium.io/v1/cities

I used the cursor to navigate through all the pages.

Steps to reproduce:

(step 1) Calling https://api.helium.io/v1/cities
=> cursor: eyJyYW5rIjoiIiwiY2l0eV9pZCI6ImhsYXZuw60gbcSbc3RvIHByYWhhY3plY2hpYSJ9
Found 0 cities with defined short_city

(step 2) Calling https://api.helium.io/v1/cities?cursor=eyJyYW5rIjoiIiwiY2l0eV9pZCI6ImhsYXZuw60gbcSbc3RvIHByYWhhY3plY2hpYSJ9
=> cursor: eyJyYW5rIjoiIiwiY2l0eV9pZCI6InNha2FyeWF0dXJrZXkifQ
Found 0 cities with defined short_city

(step 3) Calling https://api.helium.io/v1/cities?cursor=eyJyYW5rIjoiIiwiY2l0eV9pZCI6InNha2FyeWF0dXJrZXkifQ
=> cursor: eyJyYW5rIjoiU2FsZW0iLCJjaXR5X2lkIjoic2FsZW11dGFodW5pdGVkIHN0YXRlcyJ9]
Found 36 cities with defined short_city
...

(step 93) Calling https://api.helium.io/v1/cities?cursor=eyJyYW5rIjoi5p2x5Y2AIiwiY2l0eV9pZCI6IuadseWNgOWPsOWNl-W4gnRhaXdhbiJ9
=> no cursor!
Found 38 cities with defined short_city
finish!

You can check all the results here: https://chartsmon.com/upload/helium-api-cities.txt

Please fix the API to get also the cities that start with letters from A to R!

Had same problem... doesn't fetch those cities. I got the city_id from searching a random hotspot in that city.
