Hey! , How many API calls can I make in a single day with a single API key , I read somewhere that the upper limit per day is 1000 requests , is it true? or the free tier usage of TMDB provide unlimited API calls but only 50 calls per sec? If there is any limit please specify.

Hi @abhi_neeth_m_s,
We do not have a request limit on the API. Where did you read that we did?
With regards to rate limiting, we enforce a limit of approx. 40 requests per second by IP address.

Also am I limited to max 10000 results and 500 pages? I am unable to view the pages after 500

Yes, that is an API wide limit.
