Hello,

While testing the Google API Find Feed method at http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/#find_feed , I noticed that the result-set seems to be limited to 10 results, no matter how many results the query is likely to return absent the limit.

Upon consulting the documentation at https://developers.google.com/feed/v1/devguide#findFeeds , I found the following description of the result object's "entries" property at https://developers.google.com/feed/v1/devguide#resultFind :

A list typically containing up to ten feeds that matched the given query string.

Typically? Is the implication that there is a means by which to change the 10-item limit? The documentation couldn't possibly be more ambiguous in this regard.

Thank you.

10 is the maximum number of feeds it will find.

Thank you for the prompt reply, Jeremy. I'm not sure whether you have any sway in this regard, but the it would be great if the documentation could be updated to reflect this hard-limit.

I can raise it to a couple of people, but really, posting it in this group will be seen by the same people. You might also file a documentation bug in the issue tracker.

Hi Ben,

I'm looking for the same functionality and increase findFeed to return more than 10 results. Unfortunately, I have been unsuccessful and don't think there is a way to increase this limit.

I was attempting to build a new website that displays RSS feeds based on search topics, but 10 is too small of a number to work with. If you ever find a way pass this very restrictive limit, please let me know!

Regards,
~Scott
