Hi, I'm new with the TMDB API.

I'm trying to make a search like TMDB. That is, movies+people+keywords+.... so the user doesn't have to select the category of the search. ¿There is a way to do that trought the API?

Thanks,

Best Regards!

P.S: Sorry for my english.

Hi AlgusDark,

There is no such method on the API at this time. You have 2 options with the current implementation.

  1. Pull all of the data locally and host a search yourself.
  2. Do the individual searches to get the count/results.
