I am currently exploring the capabilities of your API and have a few questions about implementing advanced search functionalities. Specifically, I would like to understand how to use the API for:
Searching movies by cast name (e.g., "List all movies of Salman Khan").
Filtering movies by genre in conjunction with cast (e.g., "List all action movies of Salman Khan").
Searching for movies involving multiple cast members (e.g., "List all movies featuring both Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif").
Utilizing AI-based natural language queries to search for movies, such as "List all action movies of Salman Khan."
Could you please guide me on the appropriate API endpoints, parameters, or request formats for achieving these functionalities? Additionally, if there are specific examples or documentation available for similar use cases, I would appreciate it if you could share those.
Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to your response.

Using Discover
https://developer.themoviedb.org/reference/discover-movie
Using the &with_cast= filter
You can use one Person ID or multiple Person IDs separated by commas.
Read the explanation at the beginning of the page:

For example:

https://www.themoviedb.org/person/42802-salman-khan
Person ID 42802
Parameter
&with_cast=42802
Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif (There is more than one Katrina Kaif)
https://www.themoviedb.org/person/81869-katrina-kaif
Person ID 81869
Parameter
&with_cast=42802,81869
API Request Example

Let me know here if it worked.

In addition to the filter I explained earlier, also use the filter &with_genres=
The logic is the same.
In this case, Action has the ID 28.
You can also use more than one genre ID separated by commas.
See this link for the list of genre IDs.
https://developer.themoviedb.org/reference/genre-movie-list
Example with 2 actors and one genre:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?api_key=THE_KEY&language=en-US&page=1&with_cast=42802,81869&with_genres=28

I believe my two previous answers answer your question.
If they don't, please ask in more detail.

Basically, we have the Documentation, the DOCs.
https://developer.themoviedb.org/docs/getting-started
https://developer.themoviedb.org/reference/intro/getting-started
I suggest you spend some time browsing through the documentation.
And testing it using the "Try it!" feature on the right side of the pages.
