TMDB is great by the way - hopefully they can knock IMDB of it's perch!
Having spent over 11 hours attempting this and studying the documentation we still cant work out if this is an error with the API or our calls. We suspect this will take someone about 20 seconds to figure out.
We are trying to use GET find/{imdb_id} to return: poster_path, tmdb_id, etc
When we try:
curl -k --request GET \--url 'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/find/tt0133093?external_source=imdb_id&language=en-US&api_key=APIKEYHERE' \--data '{poster_path}';'{id}';'{title}'
we recieve a error:
Couldn't resolve host (along with an output of all the information and not just the 'poster_path, id, title' that we called.)
We are using a shell command via Tasker on Android to test.
Are we doing something wrong?
Cheers for the pointers.
Warm regards

My first instinct would be something to do with the use of single quotes. Also, passing POST data though the GET method isn't supported so there's no need to use
--data
at all.Is working properly.

Really appreciate the swift response Travis - helps a lot with our deadlines!
Apologies; as the single quotes was just a typo - we are using double and your example works great.
What we were ideally hoping for help with is whether we could select which pieces of information are return instead of the whole lot. i.e- just things like: title, poster_url, tmdb_ID, etc
Is this possible and if so, what would the curl/command be to achieve that?
Cheers again Travis!
