The Movie Database Support

Hi,

I'm wondering if it is possible to customise what return values recieved when using either the /discover/movie method, or alternatively the movie/popular method. At the moment I get a reasonably comprehensive return by default, but not as comprehensive as the /movie/{Id} method. In particular, I'm looking for the genre of the movies. I've looked into the 'append_to_response' option, but this doesn't seem to apply to /discover/movie or to movie/popular, or have I missed something?

Thanks in advance.

Hi liamocn,

There is no way to customize the data you get back in the results. These list items are the same everywhere, in all of our "featured list" pages.

Depending on the type of app you're building, I often recommend caching the data locally so that way you can create the proper schema to match your needs.

Cheers.
