How to get full cast for a movie
posted by ecaSTAFFMOD on September 27, 2016 at 10:40 ก่อนเที่ยง
Hi, I'm trying to get the full cast for the following movie: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3438354/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm
In the website I found more credits than using the API: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/250219/credits?api_key=XXX
Anyone know where is the error?
Thanks!
Ciao
Emiliano

Hi eca,
2 main points... first, this is TMDb not IMDb so our data won't match ;) Second, you should call the /credits. It will return 2 keys,
castandcrewwhich will contain whatever data we have here on TMDb.Cheers.

Does this include TV shows? If you look at the api's credits --> cast returned for the show Beverly Hills, 90210 (id 2025) you only get like 10 people, but the tmdb web page shows close to 100 people.

The new aggregated TV cast and crew lists are not available on the API. What you're seeing on the API is the last season's regular cast and crew.

Is there a plan to make the new aggregated TV cast and crew lists available in the API in the future?

I am not sure to be honest. I only just implemented this on the website a few weeks ago.
I have a ticket to think about this here. You can watch or vote for it which helps me prioritize what to work on.

Hi guys,
The aggregate TV credits method is now live. You can read the documentation for it here.
