Find

The FindAPI exposes TMDB's external-ID lookup endpoint. Use it when you already have an external identifier such as an IMDb ID and want the matching TMDB record.

import { TMDB } from "@lorenzopant/tmdb";

const tmdb = new TMDB("your-api-key");

const result = await tmdb.find.by_id({
	external_id: "tt0137523",
	external_source: "imdb_id",
});

Methods

• by_id() — Find movies, TV shows, TV seasons, TV episodes, or people by external ID.
