Extended Info
By default, all methods will return minimal info for movies, shows, episodes, people, and users. Minimal info is typically all you need to match locally cached items and includes the title, year, and ids.
However, you can request different extended levels of information by adding ?extended={level} to the URL. Send a comma separated string to get multiple types of extended info.
🅽🅾🆃🅴Extended responses can return a lot of extra data, so please only use extended parameters if you actually need them!
| Level | Description |
|---|---|
full | Complete info for an item. Includes images when available. |
images | Compatibility option for endpoints that still document or support image-only expansion. Going forward, this will have no difference from full for image inclusion. |
full,images | Compatibility option for older endpoint behavior. Prefer full unless an endpoint specifically documents otherwise. |
min | A lower-level of minimal info where supported. |
metadata | Collection only. Additional video and audio info. |
