Please provide a basic overview of your proposed use of the API.
Any request lacking this information will be denied pending an appropriate response.

Please do not request keys as end users of another project, as those projects should request and properly implement their own keys. Key requests of this nature will be removed in the interest of more efficiently handling project requests. Assistance may be available upon contact for projects experiencing issues utilizing the current API.

Please, look at the API documentation, more specifically fields parameter.

requesting a game by id, will only return the results for the specified ids, so if you have 1, it will only return 1, if you have 5, it will return 5, if you have more than 20, it will return 20 with link to the next page.

if you need to mirror the database, you'd need to request games through platform filter and loop through all pages and app platforms.

We are considering additional fields, including UPC and catalogue numbers, for a future update.
We're curious to see how new projects use TGDB API.
If you have a new public project, please provide a link to it so we can highlight cool new applications! 8-)
