getting movie/tv* by TMDB id
Inlagt av lucrusSTAFFMOD den 1 januari 2017 vid 3:32 AM
I have some js code that calls getMulti() with a query string, shows the first 3 results to the user, the user selects one and sends its TMDB id to the backend by means of a common HTML <form>. The backend receives the POST data with the TMDB ID and saves it for later use. Later, in a different webpage, the backend needs the full json of the previously selected result. Is there any API to get a movie/tv show/whatever getMulti returns, by its TMDB id?

Hi @lucrus Yes, you're looking for the /movie/{id} and /tv/{id} methods.
Make sure to read through this document as well.
Oh, and this document is a good starting point as well.
