TMDb Attributes¶

Filling in your TheMovieDb API key is mandatory in order to run Kometa.

A tmdb mapping is in the root of the config file, sampled below.

config.yml TMDb sample

tmdb:
  apikey: 147abc258def369ghi
  language: en
  region: US
  cache_expiration: 60

Attribute	Allowed Values	Default
`apikey`	User TMDb V3 API Key.	N/A
`language`	ISO 639-1 Code of the User Language.	en
`region`	ISO 3166-1 Code of the User Region for use with TMDb Chart Builders.	None
`cache_expiration`	Number of days before each cache mapping expires and has to be re-cached.	60

Important Notes¶

It is important that you use a TMDb V3 API key. If you do not already have one, follow the TMDb Getting Started guide.

If you would like to validate your API key valid prior to running Kometa, visit the TMDb Authentication page, sign in with your TMDb credentials and press the "Try It!" button on the right-hand side. You should see "success": true in the Response box.
