Find movie/TV show by imdb_id with trailer data
Verfasst von thrivingSTAFFMOD am 3. November 2015 um 14:59
Is there any way to retrieve movie/TV show and trailer data in one request?
Using the following I don't get any trailer data:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/find/tt3659388?external_source=imdb_id&api_key=api_key&append_to_response=trailers
However if I request a movie using imdb_id I get what I want (besides this not being documented) but the same won't work for TV shows.
WORKS: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/tt3659388?api_key=api_key&append_to_response=trailers
DON'T WORK: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/tt0903747?api_key=api_key&append_to_response=trailers
Thanks in advance.

Hi thriving,
Unfortunately, no. If you already have the IMDB id then yes, you can use the shortcut above but it does not exist for TV. You would have to use the /find API to get the id.
Cheers.
