Multiple movies lookup
geplaatst door spintheclipSTAFFMOD op 5 februari 2016 om 7:01 AM
Hi, I can't find any method of looking up full details for more than one movie at a time. Is there an API call that I can supply an array of movie IDs, and get an array of details back for those movies?
The use case is that I want to create a list of movies stored against a user, record the TMDb movie IDs and then fetch details for all of those movies, rather than fire multiple API calls one after another.

Hi spintheclip,
We do not have any "multi get" methods at this time. You will have to query the items one by one.
Cheers.

Hi Travis,
Thanks for your reply. I did think that appeared to be the case.
I did notice a post on the forum about effectively taking a local copy of the database and using the change endpoint to manage any updates. This would be an ideal solution for me, given the complexity of some of the calls I think I'll need to make. Is this an option that I could use?
Thanks

Yes, you can cache the data locally. That is fine.
