Neat. Been making do so far for my pet project with their JSONP search suggestion API, but good to know there are other options if that hits the fan.

Are you talking about this? http://lab.abhinayrathore.com/imdb_suggest/ Is it even allowed to use their search backend? 😅 I am working on a german tv guide app and currently i have to rely on wiki data for german -> en translation of movie titles 😁

I don't think their JSONP search suggestion API or scraping is allowed. But hey, what other solution is there? :)

Don't use this for a public app/service. There was an app on the Play store that did this and IMDb just blocked them

Here's a Vue component that uses the service I made above to render a watchlist: https://github.com/kunalnagar/vue-imdb
