How to get more result from "known for" (movies) of person via API?

Hi, all
I found the "known for" (movies) part of API search result, from both "Multi Search" and "Search People", returns 3 items. But there're at least 6 items displayed on web page.
Thanks.

Hi @idealhack,
If you're looking for more results on the search methods, you can't. If this is something you want to build on your own, or say a person detail page like we do here, you can get close by using the /combined_credits method and calculating this locally.
I have an open ticket for a dedicated method.

FYI--The person method now includes a
known_for_departmentwhich you can use to know what department to build a persons "known for" data with.
