The Movie Database Support

Hi!

First of all, thank you for the TMDB project & the API, it is a really great project!

I wanted to ask if you would consider adding the rent, buy & flatrate entries by default as optional for all countries in the following API paths:

GET /tv/{tv_id}/watch/providers GET /movie/{movie_id}/watch/providers

Right now, the open api spec for some countries is missing the flatrate or any other categories for some reason. There are however results for movie/tv titles that do have these entries. Example:

The API spec for GET /movie/{movie_id}/watch/providers is missing the "flatrate" entry in the "DE" region. The response for the movie "Prey" for example, does have a "flatrate" entry for "DE". (URL: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/766507/watch/providers )

Best regards, Peter Juras

This data is fully provided by JustWatch. They are updated daily.
If the item is not available on the Justwatch website it will not be available on TMDb.
Problems sometimes occur.
Movies that are on the JustWatch website but not on TMDb.
There has been a problem with the country code in the past.
If you are in DE (Germany) it would be best to check if it is available on JustWatch.

I'm talking about the Open API spec, which is linked from the TMDB API documentation.

Or is that response automatically linked from the Justwatch API?

Yup. Daily, via API, we download data from JustWatch.

I think @aredos is asking about the API spec as opposed to the data itself. I suspect only Travis (creator of TMDB) can answer this question.
