Fetch collection info using "append_to_response"
posted by mrobSTAFFMOD on February 12, 2025 at 9:48 AM
Is it possible to do this? I.e., something like:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/476669?append_to_response=alternative_titles,credits,external_ids,images,keywords,videos,**collections**
...but this doesn't seem to have much effect. I get belongs_to_collection, but it's minimal.
Actually, I just want the name and overview attributes, and it would be nice to avoid making another call to the TMDB API collection endpoint.
Thanks !

Hi @mrob,
Unfortunately, no, nothing like that is possible. You’ll have to make the additional request.
