Person - biography

Hi, I am querying Get person/person_id using the optional language parameter. I did notice that if the biography is not available for the provided language, null is returned. Is it possible to get somehow its value in English? The website is capable of doing so. Is that a limitation of the api ?

Thanks

Hi @blackbelt The API does not support any mechanism to fall back for data at this time. I am pretty confident in saying that v3 will never support it, and that if and when a v4 gets fully rolled out, that that is when you will see fallback support.

Cheers.
