Hello,
I can't get the "find/external_id" call working. I'm trying to retrieve information of popular shows and movies using IMDB Id, but I always get:
{"status_code":6,"status_message":"Invalid id: The pre-requisite id is invalid or not found."}
I'm building the url this way, am I missing something?:
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/find/tt1520211?api_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Note that the IMDB_ID I'm using is the one from The Walking Dead, which is listed under themoviedb database. I've tried many others with no success.
The same way, I'm also getting an error message when I Try:
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/tt1520211?api_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
However, if I try the same with movies, like:
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/tt1877832?api_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Everything works...
Thank you in advance

Hi eiprol,
You can see a working example of the find query here: https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/53b462bb0e0a26597900cda9

Hi Travis,
Thank you very much! I was missing the "&external_source=imdb_id" part.. hadn't seen it on the Api Doc! Solved :)
