Last updated movies/TV Shows

Hi,
After a (quick) search It seems that there is no post about the subject and was wondering if the API would one way or the other publish the last updated items by the community ?
In other words, is it possible to get the last updated plots, actors, genres etc... of any movie in TMDB ?
It would be very useful in the case where one needs to upgrade some cache and list to the end user just a handle of updated movies directly instead of parsing all of them again.
Any thoughts ?
Thx in advance

Hi Lynk5,
You can use the /changes endpoints to query the latest edited movies, tv shows and people. You can then query a movies changes endpoint to get those changes. These are mirrors to what you see on the website.

Perfect !
Thx
Just another question : Is there also a way to know which movies you deleted ?

No problem.
Yes, they'll be the ids that are
adult: nullin the changes list.
