Session_id

Hi, I want in my application to make it so that the user can add movies if they do not find them in your database, for this I need to create a session_id, what I need to use "Create Guest Session" or just "Create Session"?

You can use session_id only to create, manage and delete user lists (you need to "Create session" for existing TMDB user account to do that). Adding new records or changing them is only possible using TMDB website.

"Add Movie POST /list/{list_id}/add_item Add a movie to a list." This query does not add the movie to the database?

No, it adds a movie to a user's list, like this.
