Rating with a guest session id
posted by Mario2002STAFFMOD on December 9, 2013 at 9:43 AM
Hi,
i rate a movie via '/3/movie/{id}/rating' with a guest session id . After refreshing the page, the vote_count value stays the same as before rating.
The response looks like this, so it should work just fine. { "status_code": 1, "status_message": "Success" }
Should these values gets updated immediately or just once a day/hour?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mario2002,
Responses on the API are cached for ~12-24 hours so you won't see the change reflected there until the item is purged. You can however, refresh the movie on the website and you should see the vote count increase (if you were just wanting to make sure it worked).
Cheers.
