I've just started using https://github.com/JaviLorbada/JLTMDbClient - I searched for a solution here using relevant search terms before posting and didn't see any other questions asked about this. I am having issues with what should be a simple search but Brad Pitt just does not want to appear :) I did manage to get the example of popular movies working, however what should be a simpler search proves elusive.

When it failed, I tried accessing via the URL with the following (having determined the ID from the Apiary documentation for a person search) but neither worked:

api.themoviedb.org/3/search/person?api_key=[deleted my API key]&name=Brad+Pitt
{"status_code":34,"status_message":"The resource you requested could not be found."}

api.themoviedb.org/3/search/person?api_key=[deleted my API key]&id=287
{"status_code":34,"status_message":"The resource you requested could not be found."}

I'm clearly missing something simple, but I guess I am too simple to see it :(

Any help appreciated thanks.
