Hi Travis,
developing a small windows store app for my kids at home, in an attempt to reclaim the television.
Im trying to make a simple call with only the movie name
heres the url: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/Tron?api_key=638a9eb1f9682879f7234313fdfcsdfa6776
I changed the key for the post
Can you tell me whats missing ? I couldn't see any url examples in the api documentation
Thanks

Try this
static async Task RunAsync() { var baseAddress = new Uri("http://api.themoviedb.org/3/"); using (var httpClient = new HttpClient { BaseAddress = baseAddress }) { //http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=APIKEY&query=MOVIENAME -- format for the query using (var response = await httpClient.GetAsync("search/movie?api_key=API_KEY&query=Banshee")) { string responseData = await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); } } }Svar från Travis Bell
