Append to response not working properly when using /tv/{id}/similar
posted by sunnerbergSTAFFMOD on jūlijs 20, 2015 at 1:36 PM
Hello! First off, many thanks for this amazing API.
I'm currently unable to get the append to response parameter working when querying /tv/{id}/similar, e.g, https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/1409/similar?api_key=#&append_to_response=external_id,images doesn't return external ids nor images. Despite this, the documentation (http://docs.themoviedb.apiary.io/#reference/tv/tvidsimilar) states:
append_to_response Comma separated, any TV method Where e.g
external_idsis also a method for the TV-category.
It's possible that I'm missing something obvious. Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Hi!
Take a look at this post describing the same idea and solution: https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/51349dd4760ee31a2d01d98b

Thanks for the fast reply!
Okay. I can turn it around and find the similar shows using e.g.
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/1409?api_key=#&append_to_response=external_ids,similar. But that still doesn't include the external ids for the similar shows. The reason I'd like to do this is to perform one request per page of similar shows, instead of one request per similar show (just to fetch the external ids and such).From that thread, I'm guessing that isn't possible. Would be a nice feature for the future, perhaps :-).

You are correct, that is not possible at this time.
