Metadata

tracker_config section of Unit3Dbot.json — the keys for the external services the bot queries to identify your content.

TMDB_APIKEY

"TMDB_APIKEY": "your_key",

TheMovieDatabase is the main service: the bot queries it to get the title ID (movie or TV show) to send to the tracker, plus keywords and the trailer.

Free key: sign up at themoviedb.org, then Settings → API.

TVDB_APIKEY

"TVDB_APIKEY": "your_key",

TheTVDB is queried for TV shows; the bot also derives the IMDB ID from its result. Get a key at thetvdb.com → API.

YOUTUBE_KEY

"YOUTUBE_KEY": "your_key",

Used to search the trailer on YouTube when TMDB doesn't provide one. API key from Google Cloud Console (YouTube Data API v3).

See also SKIP_YOUTUBE, YOUTUBE_FAV_CHANNEL_ID and YOUTUBE_CHANNEL_ENABLE in Advanced options.

IGDB_CLIENT_ID and IGDB_ID_SECRET

"IGDB_CLIENT_ID": "your_client_id",
"IGDB_ID_SECRET": "your_secret",

IGDB identifies games. Credentials come from the Twitch developer console (IGDB belongs to Twitch).

Without IGDB credentials, games are skipped

If IGDB_CLIENT_ID stays no_key, the bot skips game uploads with the message Skipping game upload, no IGDB credentials provided. Movies, TV shows and documents are not affected.
