The Movie Database Support

Hi,

when I request this:

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?sort_by=top_grossing&page=1

all items at the top returns this

{"success":false,"status_code":34,"status_message":"The resource you requested could not be found."}

for example i request this

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/44207

is it normal?

Thanks.

You have posted 2 examples, and the two examples are incomplete and they are different.
At first,

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?sort_by=top_grossing&page=1  

I don't see API Key with THE_KEY. And the sort_by option is missing &.

In the second example,

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/44207  

you did not write the rest of the Request after the TMDb ID.

Can you please kindly poster the full API Request?
It should look something like this:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/44207?api_key=THE_KEY&language=en-US
Remember to replace your Key with THE_KEY or something like that.

And in this specific case, there is no Movie with that TMDb ID, 44207.
There is a TV Show with this TMDb ID.
Try this Request:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/44207?api_key=THE_KEY&language=en-US

Hi @ticao2

I use the v4 access token so I wont need to put api key.

This is my request

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/movie?sort_by=top_grossing&page=1

This is the response, as you can see there is 720192 id

{"page":1,"total_results":10000,"total_pages":500,"results":[{"popularity":0,"vote_count":0,"video":false,"poster_path":"\/nk4yMemF1iHt2e1KXjDxY5ic64s.jpg","id":**720192**,"adult":false

but when i get the details:

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/720192

this is the response

{"success":false,"status_code":34,"status_message":"The resource you requested could not be found."}

It is clearly response in the top grossing list that there is **720192 **id but when i get it's details, it could not be found.

I have mistake, I should put revenue.desc instead of top_grossing. Problem solved :)

but maybe there must be a blocker in the discover request if the sort is incorrect. Also it return id that is don't have detail.

This film, with TMDb ID 720192, so I tested it is inaccessible.
It is certainly a defect of TMDb.
I believe that only Travis Bell can solve the problem of this film.
If you can, please do a new Report here on the forum:

If you can't do it, let me know. I do it myself.

Will send tom, I found many movie ids that dont have details. I will consolidate.

Hi @Jaymart7, you can use the daily ID exports to know what IDs exist in advance.

Hi @travisbell thanks for this, will explore this soon.
