streaming/buy link request
posted by dslulSTAFFMOD on November 10, 2014 at 3:04 AM
Hello, i am using this API to develop a simple app, however i was looking for a way to integrate in each film entry a link that redirects to streaming websites (such as play movies or netflix) or Amazon (something like this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OH74BXY/). Is there any string to append to a request? Otherwise is there a way to convert an imdb ID to an amazon ID? (if you go to a imdb film page there is also a link to the amazon product).

Hi dslul,
Unfortunately no, we don't have any of these ids in our db. Since Amazon owns IMDb, the incentive for them to cross market retail goods is rather high.
I don't think we'll have any of these kinds of ids—certainly not in the near of future.
Cheers.
