Hi @travisbell ,

I tried to append the movie details to the response. But I'm getting the response like this.

{
    "status_code": 7,
    "status_message": "Invalid API key: You must be granted a valid key."
}

My request is:

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/157336?api_key={{API_KEY}}&append_to_response=videos

I tried your API key (I've truncated it here for privacy) and everything is working properly. Make sure you copied and pasted it properly (no spaces or anything around it for example).

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?api_key=4d55e***************&append_to_response=videos

@travisbell I am unable to get the key for the video. All I am getting is this:

{"id":155,"results":[{"id":"58f284f49251413da7003225","iso_639_1":"en","iso_3166_1":"US","key":"kmJLuwP3MbY","name":"The Dark Knight - Official Trailer [HD]","site":"YouTube","size":1080,"type":"Trailer"}]}

and when I try to parse it I am only able to get the id value and not able to get value from key as its in second array I guess. Can you help me with it as I am new in JS?

I have no idea.
I am not a programmer.
I'm just a curious old man who got to understand the TMDb API. :-)

@ticao2 hahahah okay sir. I hope someone can help me with this😅

Hello,

When I append "&append_to_response=videos" to the general request to find the movies (https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/search/search-movies) It never shows the youtube ID for the videos. Am I doinn something wrong ?

Example : to https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=e10867ce9f0cd0e1d8210200f5702795&language=en-US&query=The%20Invisible%20Ma&page=1&include_adult=false&append_to_response=videos

thx for your help!

Only the get info methods support append_to_response. You can’t use it on search, discover or find.

how do I get trailers for the trending movies that I am getting from the api

You can follow the "search and query" article in the documentation. Just swap out search for a trending method.

how to get any movie id

@amdbookings said:
how to get any movie id

Read these initial introduction instructions.
https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/getting-started/introduction
When you don't know the ID, there are 3 ways to search using Title, Name or External ID.

1. Search = Using Title or Name
2. Discover = Using Title
3. Find = Using External ID

1 Get/Search
https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/search/search-movies
Movies, TV Shows, People, Company, Collection, Keyword

2 Get/Discover
- Movies
https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie-discover
- TV Shows
https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/discover/tv-discover

3 Get/Find
https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/find/find-by-id
IMDB ID, TVDB ID, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter

In the response, depending on the search terms, you may receive one or more items.
For all items you will receive basic information, including the item ID.

Knowing the ID of the item you are looking for (Movie, TV Show, People etc ...)
we go to the second step which is to obtain the complete information of the item,
making a Request of the type Get / Info or Get / Details.

For each type of item there is a specific API Request to obtain Basic Information.

Movie = https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/movies/get-movie-details
TV Show = https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/tv/get-tv-details
People = https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/people/get-person-details
Company = https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/companies/get-company-details
Network = https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/networks/get-network-details
Collection = https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/collections/get-collection-details
keyword = https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/keywords/get-keyword-details

For each of the Items, there are variations of API Request
to obtain other Item information. more specific information.
These API Request variations can be found in the menu
to the left of each of the Links informed above.

Hi @travisbell Is there any API to get trailer URL for given IMDB_ID of a Movie? Or we need to find that movie first to get TMDB_ID and then call Videos API?

@travisbell said:

Since we link to YouTube, it's as simple as taking the key value and appending it to a youtube.com address like so:

http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550/videos?api_key=###

Has the YouTube key of SUXWAEX2jlg, so:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUXWAEX2jlg

Cheers.

I didn't understand. Can you be more specific? How can I display trailers from Youtube based on the movie data from the API?
