Note:

Version 1 of the IMDb API is deprecated and will be removed in the future. The current version is v2, which is available at v2 documentation (opens in a new tab).

What is GraphQL?

IMDb APIs use GraphQL for querying data.

GraphQL (opens in a new tab) is a strongly typed API query language that provides an alternative to REST. You can use it to request the exact data you need, and therefore limit the number of requests you need.
GraphQL data is arranged in types, so your client can use client-side GraphQL libraries (opens in a new tab) to consume the API and avoid manual parsing.

Endpoint:

The GraphQL IMDb API is available at:
