API List All Orders

When requesting all orders via /wp-json/wc/v3/orders, the returned data includes all line-items for each order. Is there any way to retrieve the order list, but exclude the line-items? I really just wanted the order ids so I can call each order individually, to get the line items (if required). We regularly receive orders upwards of 50 products, so I’d rather not request line-item data with every list orders call, if it can be avoided.

I see from the documentation that there is an exclude parameter which might provide a solution, but I haven’t managed to get it to work as there’s no code sample showing the correct syntax (I’m using python BTW).

Any advice would be much appreciated.
