The Movie Database Support Forum

Hi All, I’m currently playing around with the movie method and the append_to_response parameter.

I’ve just discovered that it’s possible to add parameters to an appended method, for example: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?api_key=API_KEY_HERE&append_to_response=alternative_titles,similar_movies&language=DE

But I’ve one problem… when I add another method after on with a parameter, for example: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?api_key= API_KEY_HERE&append_to_response=similar_movies&language=DE,alternative_titles

In this case the result of the last method (alternative_titles) does not get appended to the response.

Now the question, is it only possible to add parameters to the last method, or is it a bug?

You are only comma separating the language parameter in your query.

If you want the alternative_titles and similar_movies you need to append them as part of the append_to_response parameter. This is a working example:

http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?api_key= ###&append_to_response=similar_movies,alternative_titles&language=DE

Cheers.

Ah, my bad. I thought that I can add a parameter to a append method (e.g. alternative_titles)… now everything makes sense^

how its works for persons? for example when i look in the most popular actors with: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/person/popular?api_key=XXXX and try to add the append to response to get, more details about the actor with: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/person/popular?api_key=###&append_to_response=gender,biography,place_of_birth i got the same answer without the apend to...

profile_path: "/z3sLuRKP7hQVrvSTsqdLjGSldwG.jpg", adult: false, id: 28782, known_for: [], name: "Monica Bellucci", popularity: 36.880718

and, no more... :(

also, if i try to do use the append to response in others query i dont get result, for example: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/33?api_key=###&append_to_response=alternative_titles i know, the best way to get the alternatives title for a movie is: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/33/alternative_titles?api_key=a891a43144ff454381c26c74adc91c1f but, how i know is there is an other way to get parameters from the persons?

thanks for your time and help

Hi josue.valrob,

append_to_response is not supported on any list or search methods, only the primary media id (movie/id, tv/id and person/id) methods.

how i know what kind of method is the data that i am looking for?
