Does IMDB provide an API? [closed]

Answer 1

Another legal alternative to get movie info is the Rotten-Tomatoes API (by Fandango).

Answer 2

IMDB themselves seem to distribute data, but only in text files:

http://www.imdb.com/interfaces

there are several APIs around this that you can Google. Screen scraping is explicitly forbidden. A official API seems to be in the works, but has been that for years already.

Answer 3

https://deanclatworthy.com/tools.html is an IMDB API but has been down due to abuse.

Answer 4

NetFilx is more of personalized media service but you can use it for public information regarding movies. It supports Javascript and OData.
Also look JMDb: The information is basically the same as you can get when using the IMDb website.

Answer 5

If you need TV information you can try TVmaze.com.

It's free, fast and reliable. Here is the developer page:

Answer 6

Yes, but not for free.

.....annual fees ranging from $15,000 to higher depending on the audience for the data and which data are being licensed.
