Append To Response - TMDB API Documentation

append_to_response is an easy and efficient way to append extra requests to any top level namespace. The movie, TV show, TV season, TV episode and person detail methods all support this query parameter. This makes it possible to make sub requests within the same namespace in a single HTTP request. Each request will get appended to the response as a new JSON object. Here’s a quick example, let’s assume you want the details and the videos for a movie, you can issue a single request with append_to_response:

Example

curl --request GET \
     --url 'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/11?append_to_response=videos' \
     --header 'Authorization: Bearer {ACCESS_TOKEN}'

For more effectiveness, you can issue multiple requests by using comma , to separate the values:

Example

curl --request GET \
     --url 'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/11?append_to_response=videos,images' \
     --header 'Authorization: Bearer {ACCESS_TOKEN}'

Each method will still accept the query parameters supported by that specific request. This is especially important for images, as the language parameter will filter them. In such cases, the include_image_language parameter can be helpful, as explained on the image language page.
