You need to use

• People - Movie Credits if you want just the movies
• People - TV Credits if you want just the TV series
• People - Combined credits if you want them all

how to get {person_id}?? can i type in a combobox and return name and id???

You should use this search method.

i tried this and it return nothing:: this: {"status_code":7,"status_message":"Invalid API key: You must be granted a valid key.","success":false} https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/person?query=Mark%20Wahlberg?api_key=<>

You need to include your API key while calling the method.

i have. just did not show it here!

The error message indicate that you did not enter it correctly.

EDIT : I just see your error. You should use "&" between the parameters, "?" should only be used before the first parameter.

appreciate your help!!! here is string: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/person?query=Mark%20Wahlberg&api_key=0c3840bfedc what i really need is either all movies he has been in, or retrieve entered actor/actress ID??? is there a way to enter name, and get ID. then i can use your previous answer. People - Movie Credits if you want just the movies People - TV Credits if you want just the TV series People - Combined credits if you want them all

thanks again!

In the answer of that call, you will get the Id that you can use in the other methods.

Thanks superboy97. here is string that returns the ID, and now it returns the movies (1) page only/?? Dim url As String = $"https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/person?api_key={TMDBApiKey}&query={Uri.EscapeDataString(query)}"

All is explained in the given documentation pages.
