Maybe, just one maybe, change the 4 by 3.

Tried, no go. And I got it from here: https://developers.themoviedb.org/4/account/get-account-movie-watchlist
:)
And since I'm new here.. Just to be clear.. {account_id} is my account name, right? So for me this would be "htilly" ?

I know very little about API v3. And even less of the API v4.
Sorry I can not help you. Only Travis Bell can help you.
Travis Bell, Help

I get the same error (status code 11) when trying to add a comment to an existing item in a list using the v4 list API. The same code/request works for some items, but others just crash and burn.

@htilly You need to be making a request with your account id, not username.
You can get your account ID by completing the request for an access token. I have an example script that you can use to see what I mean here.
@jyggen Can you create a new post? Your issue doesn't sound connected to @htilly's. Thanks.

Works like a charm!!
Thanks!!
Stupid questions. Do I need to complete the request for an access token each time.. Or can I reuse this user ID from now on?

Excellent!
No, you do not. Access tokens do not expire so feel free to use that one.
