In order to screen a Person you should set the search_type to "individual".
A new search can be created by sending a POST request with search terms, parameters, and filters. The default result of a search will return the first 100 results from our database, if available. By using the offset and limit parameters, you can increase the result limit or retrieve more results through multiple searches.
