Is it possible to search for movies in local Emby database by Tmdb id?

Hi,

Is it possible to search for movies in local Emby database by Tmdb id? I had a look at wiki/forum but cannot see much about the use of ProviderId and examples without providing the Item ID.

The only way I managed to get this working for now is to get movie from Trakt  --> search for name in Tmdb based on id --> search for movie with this name in Emby

Is there any simpler way to do this?

I’m putting together a script which gets movies from Trakt.tv watchlist and adds movies to Ombi/Radarr after checking if they are present or not in Emby. I know it’s not the most common way to do this but I have some issues with Radarr (end up having two instances) and this is the only way I can resolve for now. When adding movies manually to Ombi it’s not allowing request when movie is preset in Emby, but when adding movie via API it adds everything causing duplicates in Emby.

Check the /Items API and the AnyProviderIdEquals param for that API.
