Problem with episode_type
Inlagt av TheSizkarnSTAFFMOD den 25 maj 2024 vid 6:35 PM
Hello,
I have noticed inconsistencies with the "episode_type" value for episodes.
- This value is only retrievable from the endpoint "/tv/{series_id}/season/{season_number}"
- It is not found in "/tv/{series_id}/season/{season_number}/episode/{episode_number}"
- In "/tv/{series_id}/season/{season_number}" it is explicitly indicated (standard, mid-season, finale), but in "/episode/{episode_id}/changes", it is indicated by a number (0, 1, 2).
Is it at least possible to have an update to include "episode_type" in the endpoint "/tv/{series_id}/season/{season_number}/episode/{episode_number}"?
Thank you.

Hi @TheSizkarn,
I've created a new ticket to get this added here.
Thanks.

Oh thank you @travisbell !
Just to know, how long does it take on average to process a ticket like this?

This one is pretty simple so it's likely to get done sooner than later but I don't have an exact timeline.

Hey guys,
This update just went live. As soon as the cached objects expire, you'll start to see the
episode_typefield getting returned as part of the TV episode endpoints. It may take up to ~8 hours before all of the cached items have been refreshed.Thanks.
