Possible values for the "key" in the TV changes API
Inlagt av LeKnuthSTAFFMOD den 20 november 2014 vid 12:00 PM
A list of all possible keys for the TV changes API would be nice. Or, maybe update the examples in the API Documentation to include all possible keys.
I'm most confused about this particular statement:
TV changes are different than movie changes in that there are some edits on seasons and episodes that will create a change entry at the show level. They can be found under the season and episode keys.
I can find examples for the key having being "series", but not one for "episode".
Under which sircumstances are series/episode keys bubbled up to the series changes?

Hi LeKnuth,
I can give you a quick example if you take a look at the changes for The Flash. You'll see on the 17th, season 1 was updated. If you click into season 1, you'll see that episode 6,7 and 8 were updated. It was those episode changes that created a season level edit and then the season change triggered the TV show edit.
Does that answer your question?

So there is never a "episode"-key change in on the series-level? Just a "season"-key change and I'll have to look into the season-change to see what actually changed?
In ohter words: An Episode-change triggers a Season-Change which triggers a Series-Change, did I get that right?

That's right, I don't believe there would ever be an episode key.

Okay, thanks.
Maybe the documentation should be cleared up a bit there.
