I am really new for the API, and I can hardly understand the reference. The first question is that where can I get the URL to use the API key? I've saw that "http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key="+api_key+"&query="; for film, but I don't know where to find other URLS. In http://docs.themoviedb.apiary.io/reference, there is a webpage,http://private-anon-62624bef6-themoviedb.apiary-mock.com/3/search/movie,but it's only a result, not the URLS for response...

I'm not sure I understand your question. All the API requests are in the documentation, what do you mean by URL ?

For example, when I want to use the search for movie ,the url is "http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key="+api_key+"&query="+move; But the response is only for the release year, and the name of movie. If I still want more informations, like the actors and language, where can I get that response?

I am sorry that I'm really poor at it . For example , I 've found that http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=###&query=movieName is a URL for search movie, but I don't know where you get to know the URL. I cannot find it in the documentation. If I want to get movie information by Id, I cannot find the URL for response

The API provides you with access to CREDITS so you may get the actors this way : http://docs.themoviedb.apiary.io/reference/movies/movieidcredits/get
Everything is in the documentation. As for the language it should be in the /movie data.

Hi liuqyilin, like HarisRobin said, all the links and how to get to them are listed in the documentation.
For example, to search for a movie by id, you would append the base url with /movie/{id}/apiKey replace {id} with the id of the movie you want to search.
I hope this helps, if I did ub=nderstand your question.
