I am grabbing a movie trailer from API results in order to show the 'Official Trailer'. I want to show the official trailer instead of featurettes/bloopers etc.
At the moment I am doing this which works for the most part, but some movies don't seem to accept it....
let movieTrailerUrl = data.videos.results.find(element => element.name.toLowerCase() === 'Official Trailer'.toLowerCase()).key;
For example, this movie clearly has available videos but it pulls in zero results...

Is there a better way to grab an 'Official Trailer' from the API?

Each video object returns a field called
official
that you should be checking instead of anything to do with the name. Studios name their trailers all kinds of different things so that would not be a very reliable way to searching for official trailers.Request

I feel like this doesn't solve the issue of Trailers specifically. Grabbing videos marked 'Official' means you also get anything else marked official - bloopers/featurettes/interviews/teasers etc.
Is the a way to specifically get the 'official movie trailer' as opposed to an 'offical video of any kind'?
Hope that makes sense and appreciate the help.

You wouldn't just grab anything marked as official. Instead, grab the items that are
type: Trailer
ANDofficial: true

All video responses contain this data:
So I think you should select what you want.
"published_at": I believe it's the date of publication on Youtube.
There is no API Request that returns only the latest, or most recent, official trailer.

Guys, try -> const trailerUrl = movieVids?.results?.find(element => element.name.includes("Official Trailer") || element.name.includes("Trailer")) Use then trailerUrl.key.
It will find any video that have "Official Trailer" or "Trailer" in this name. So you guarantee TRAILER video.
