Hi @sambhu,

The only supported way to search by an external ID is with the /find method. You'll have to use that.

Cheers.

Hi,

Can you guys add that, this will help.

And also i see some tvseries and movie that exist in imdb and theomdbapi does not exist in your platform.

I'm not sure if I follow. This already works. Take for example, tt1520211, the IMDb for The Walking Dead, you can do a query to find it with /find:

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/find/tt1520211?api_key=###&external_source=imdb_id

TMDb is a crowd sourced platform. If you find data that is missing I encourage you to add them. You can read more about the rules and guidelines for adding new data here on the Contribution Bible.
