The Movie Database Support

Hello, I sent a simple search query with my api key (used several times since feb. 2023) but today I get a 401 message. The following request is sent via a javascript fetch function: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=myKey&language=fr&query=Charlie%27s+Angels did I miss something ? Thanks in advance for your advice Kind regards Joseph

I moved from France to Tunisa a few months ago, so my IP and location have changed. Does this has to do with a 401 unauthorized status ?

I renewed the api key in my settings and it seems to work better (no error message) but the object returned below seems incomplete:

Response { type: "cors", url: "https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=MY_KEY&language=fr&query=Charlie%27s+Angels", redirected: false, status: 200, ok: true, statusText: "", headers: Headers(19), body: ReadableStream, bodyUsed: false } ​body: ReadableStream { locked: false } ​​locked: false ​​: ReadableStreamPrototype { cancel: cancel(), getReader: getReader(), pipeThrough: pipeThrough(), … } ​bodyUsed: false ​headers: Headers(19) { "access-control-allow-origin" → "", "access-control-expose-headers" → "", "alt-svc" → 'h3=":443"; ma=86400', … } ​​ ​​: HeadersPrototype { append: append(), delete: delete(), get: get(), … } ​ok: true ​redirected: false ​status: 200 ​statusText: "" ​type: "cors"

​url: "https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=MY_KEY&language=fr&query=Charlie%27s+Angels"

Is that a matter of timeout or something else ? ​

Hi @J.Ack, if that is the response you are getting to the query, it looks like you may be doing something wrong in constructing the query or reading the response. The status:200 means the query is working. Check and make sure you have "accept: application/json" in your query header and read this discussion to make sure you are waiting for and processing the response properly.

Hello @robbie3999, Thanks a lot for your answer: I made a confusion between 'key' and 'token' in the header option and now everything works fine ! Kind regards
