You should write "movie" instead of "movies" as indicated here.

i got this response. is it true? { "adult": false, "backdrop_path": "/l94l89eMmFKh7na2a1u5q67VgNx.jpg", "belongs_to_collection": null, "budget": 0, "genres": [ { "id": 18, "name": "Drama" }, { "id": 35, "name": "Comedy" }, { "id": 10749, "name": "Romance" } ], "homepage": "", "id": 3, "imdb_id": "tt0092149", "original_language": "fi", "original_title": "Varjoja paratiisissa", "overview": "Nikander, a rubbish collector and would-be entrepreneur finds his plans for success dashed when his business associate dies.

What do you mean by "is it true?". I don't understand your question.

my url is like that https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/18. but when I use get with postman it gives me response like that { "adult": false, "backdrop_path": "/wgvc3PmjQGtYYDWaeuV867mnFDs.jpg", "belongs_to_collection": null, "budget": 90000000, "genres": [ { "id": 12, "name": "Adventure" }, { "id": 14, "name": "Fantasy" }, { "id": 28, "name": "Action" }, { "id": 53, "name": "Thriller" }, { "id": 878, "name": "Science Fiction" } ], "homepage": "", "id": 18, "imdb_id": "tt0119116", "original_language": "en", "original_title": "The Fifth Element", "overview": "In 2257, a taxi driver is unintentionally given the task of saving a young girl who is part of the key that will ensure the survival of humanity.", "popularity": 50.696, "poster_path": "/fPtlCO1yQtnoLHOwKtWz7db6RGU.jpg", "production_companies": [ { "id": 9, "logo_path": "/nda3dTUYdDrJ6rZqBpYvY865aDv.png", "name": "Gaumont", "origin_country": "FR" }, { "id": 5892, "logo_path": "/AlfRSqTMw9RIHR2RIzy4pkcaXnY.png", "name": "Buena Vista International", "origin_country": "US" } ], "production_countries": [ { "iso_3166_1": "FR", "name": "France" }, { "iso_3166_1": "US", "name": "United States of America" } ], "release_date": "1997-05-02", "revenue": 263920180, "runtime": 126, "spoken_languages": [ { "english_name": "English", "iso_639_1": "en", "name": "English" }, { "english_name": "Swedish", "iso_639_1": "sv", "name": "svenska" }, { "english_name": "German", "iso_639_1": "de", "name": "Deutsch" } ], "status": "Released", "tagline": "There is no future without it.", "title": "The Fifth Element", "video": false, "vote_average": 7.533, "vote_count": 10018 }

is it true or do I do something wrong? i want not get info other ids

The informations you get are correct. Why do you think they may be wrong ?

because i asked only id=3, but it fetched id with different numbers

@tomrist said:

No.

In your first query, you have fetch id=2 and in the second one, you have fetch id=18.

i want to fetch only the id which I want

@tomrist said:

The Id is the last value in the URL.

i wrote it as an url https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/3 and again got response { "adult": false, "backdrop_path": "/l94l89eMmFKh7na2a1u5q67VgNx.jpg", "belongs_to_collection": null, "budget": 0, "genres": [ { "id": 18, "name": "Drama" }, { "id": 35, "name": "Comedy" }, { "id": 10749, "name": "Romance" } ], "homepage": "", "id": 3, "imdb_id": "tt0092149", "original_language": "fi", "original_title": "Varjoja paratiisissa", "overview": "Nikander, a rubbish collector and would-be entrepreneur finds his plans for success dashed when his business associate dies.

This is the correct answer for the movie with id=3. There is nothing wrong.

okay thank you

The id for the movie is

... "id": 3, "imdb_id": "tt0092149", "original_language": "fi", "original_title": "Varjoja paratiisissa" ...

The other ids

"genres": [ { "id": 18, "name": "Drama" }, { "id": 35, "name": "Comedy" }, { "id": 10749, "name": "Romance" } ]

"production_companies": [ { "id": 2303, "logo_path": null, "name": "Villealfa Filmproductions", "origin_country": "FI" } ]

are different ids, one for each genre name in the genre array and one for each production company name in the production company array. They are not movie ids.
