Your TMDb Consumer Key.

query

A CGI escaped string.

page

The number of the page to show. Minimum 1, maximum 1000.

include_adult

Toggle the inclusion of adult titles. Expected value is: true or false

search_type

By default, the search type is 'phrase'. This is almost guaranteed the option you will want. It's a great all purpose search type and by far the most tuned for every day querying. For those wanting more of an "autocomplete" type search, set this option to 'ngram'.

Value

A list with the following fields:

page

The current page for the results.

results

The people that match the query.

total_pages

The number of pages for the results.

total_results

The number of results.
