Yes.
You must use the TMDb ID and not the IMDB ID.

Thank you very much! Is there any way with using with IMDB ID? Because i am using it for movie with this link: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/tt0137523?api_key=***********&language=en-EN

Use IMDB ID as ID in API Request

This API Request feature for Movies was implemented about 10 years ago at the request of a client at the time.
But it was never part of Travis Bell's plans.
The client no longer exists, but I believe that "deleting" this resource is a lot of work.
So it still exists. But it can disappear at any time.
This feature was never implemented for TV Show.


EDIT
If you need to find out what a movie's TMDb ID is, and only have the IMDB ID for that movie,
you can use the API Request specific to this discovery.
Find by ID = get/find/{external_id}

Thanks again for your answers...
