"Private API , please provide private hash" error only when trying to use 'genre' API calls
Inlagt av mmmannySTAFFMOD den 24 januari 2014 vid 12:49 PM
I get the error "Private API , please provide private hash" when trying to using any api calls involving genre - ie. themoviedb.apiary.io/3/genre/list or a lookup for a specific genre using /3/genre/{id}/movie. I get the error even when I provide my api key. I am able to use all other API calls without issue (ie get movies, get popular), is a different API key required for the genre calls?
Thanks

Hi mmmanny,
You're attempting to access the Apiary API. That is just for testing. For real world requests, you'll want to access
api.themoviedb.org.Cheers.
