List of Sequels
Kirjoittanut hariraoSTAFFMOD pvä 4 tammikuu 2017 klo 11:39AM
Hi, When I search http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=[My-KEY]&query=Indiana+Jones I get so many results but I am just interested in only the below four i.e only the Sequels
Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)
Is there any way to specify in API call to bring back only the Sequels ?
Thanks Hari

Hi @harirao Not really with search. Once you have one of the proper films though, you can call the movie details method and simply look at the
belongs_to_collectionfield. It will link to the collection id and you can then call the collection details method to get all of the parts.Vastaus käyttäjältä harirao

Thanks for your reply @travisbell
How will I know the proper films programmatically?
Eg as soon I search for Indiana Jones I get a huge list and programmatically I might think "The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones: Demons of Deception" is one of the proper films and go ahead with movie details method and then collection details method but that is not correct?

Unfortunately, you can't from just a "list" method (search, discover, find, etc...) You have to make the sub-request to get these details right now.
Are you building a system that has a local cache, or trying to expose this right on a UI? If it's the former, you can build your own cache and schema to accommodate your needs better. If it's the latter, there won't be much you can do I'm afraid.
