Daily file export enhancements

I use the daily file exports in a mobile app under development primarily to help users select items and then gain more information via the standard API. Works nice. But there are two places where enhancements would be helpful: the use of HTTPS and providing some filters on the downloads, particularly to remove adult items and to sort the datasets by name.

Hi @pajatopmr,
You can actually already use SSL with the file exports: https://files.tmdb.org/p/exports/movie_ids_04_12_2019.json.gz
With regards to your question about sorting and filtering, since these are static files that are generated once a day, offering any kind of custom versions is not very practical. My suggestion would be to import these files into your own database where you can customize the schema to your apps needs.
