Hi Travis,

for example if I want all movies of X actor in 1 response is it possible?

I know I can get different pages for Tom Hanks like this:

http://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?with_cast=31&sort_by=release_date.asc&api_key=###&page=1

http://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?with_cast=31&sort_by=release_date.asc&api_key=###&page=2

...

http://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?with_cast=31&sort_by=release_date.asc&api_key=###&page=5

But is it possible only to get only 1 response with full filmography?

Sure:

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/person/31?api_key=###&append_to_response=credits

Make sure to consult the documentation for all of the available person methods.

Cheers.

Hi again,

thanks for the help Travis but as you might notice in the first links I posted the films are sorted by release_date, is there anyway I can use the link you posted but with films sorted by release_date?

Hi Cuervo,

No, if you need filtering and sorting, you'll have to stick with discover and make a separate request for each page.
