Question

Netflix just recently announced that they have a new OData API which gives developers access to more of their catalog and is exactly what I ve been looking for. Also, on odata.org they have a sample iphone objective-c sdk that accesses the netflix odata api and displays a few movie titles in a tableview with a navigationcontroller.

I m just messing around right now and I would like to access more than just the catalog titles but I have no idea how to. Preferably, I would like to just push another view controller that will implement a page that can display the synopsis etc. Any suggestions on how to access the other data elements of a movie? Thanks

Answer 1

What do you mean that you cant access anything else than the title? Synopsis can be retrieved like this

http://odata.netflix.com/Catalog/Titles( 13dk1 )/Synopsis

or if you want the synopsis and name of a movie you can use

http://odata.netflix.com/Catalog/Titles( 13dk1 )?$select=Name,Synopsis

or you can combine it with the Filter operator like this

http://odata.netflix.com/Catalog/Titles?$filter=Name%20eq%20 Avatar &$select=Name,Synopsis
