Get list by ID not working
posted by TadlySTAFFMOD on January 30, 2013 at 1:15 PM
Hi, I tried it multible times but can't get it working for me.
My request looks like this: http://private-d92e-themoviedb.apiary.io/3/list/51069d58760ee3108b085458?
response is: {"status_code":6,"status_message":"Invalid id - The pre-requisite id is invalid or not found"}
Could it be that it is a bug in the API?

Does this fail if you use the real production end point and not Apiary?

If you mean this -> "http://api.themoviedb.org/" one. Yes Otherwise I don't know what you mean with "real production end point"

Yes,
api.themoviedb.org.Where did you get this list ID from? It doesn't seem to exist: http://www.themoviedb.org/list/51069d58760ee3108b085458

Okay, step by step:
First i request all the lists for an acc: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/account/6015286/lists?&
Response: {"page":0,"results":[{"description":"The idea behind this list is to collect the live action comic book movies from within the Marvel franchise.","favorite_count":8,"id":"51069d58760ee3108b085458","item_count":34,"iso_639_1":"en","list_type":"movie","name":"The Marvel Universe","poster_path":"/w2JbuNpBnfevl0yCcYEm6vNFWdi.jpg"},{"description":"","favorite_count":1,"id":"5102c3ee760ee34298925c5f","item_count":0,"iso_639_1":"de","list_type":"movie","name":"Movies i have to get","poster_path":null}],"total_pages":1,"total_results":2}
And as you can see... The ID i'll get back is this one "51069d58760ee3108b085458"

Weird. I'll have to take a look at this. This is the actual list:
https://www.themoviedb.org/list/50941077760ee35e1500000c
Not sure where
51069d58760ee3108b085458is coming from.Reply by Tadly

Okay, means I use the api correctly and it's more a problem of the interface itself?
Means less work for me :D

When can I expect a fix for this?
Only to clarify once again: The Problem is that the request for "Get the lists that you have created and marked as a favorite." return wrong id's
Thank you very much for the support :)
