Movie/show availability on streaming services
posted by bossdgaSTAFFMOD on June 27, 2020 at 11:24 AM
Is there any way to get movies and tv shows availability on streaming services (netflix, amazon prime, hbo, etc). I can see that on the desktop site you can get such info: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/807-se7en/watch?language=en-US. I know you can get the "networks" object for the TV Shows, but that does not necessarily have to be a streaming service. I am wondering how to get that from the API for movies and tv shows.
Thanks

No, it is not possible via API.
TMDb displays JustWatch data on the website, but cannot provide this data via API.
There are talks and negotiations, but nothing has been defined.

Thanks for letting me know! Hopefully we can get that data at some point, that is somewhat key for my app.

Hi @bossdga,
This might not be exactly what you're looking for but we've pushed a new method called watch providers, which can be found at the following two paths:
I detailed some of the details on the Trello ticket here. It's important to note this is not going to return full deep links, but rather, it's just enough information to display what's available where. You can link to TMDb's /watch pages if you want to provide full deep links. We may do more with JustWatch on the API in the future, but for now this is what we've decided on.
