For Agents
Programmatically search titles, get title details. Covers 8 operations with apiKey authentication.
Use for: I need to titles, I want to title details, Search for streaming sources, Find all all titles
Install Jentic One Beta
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the Watchmode API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.
Step 1: Jentic One Host machine
# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | shStep 2: Agent machine
# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register # connects your agent to your Jentic One instanceJentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.
What an agent can do with Watchmode API.
Search titles
Get title details
List all titles
Query and filter Watchmode API records by parameters
GET STARTED
Not supported: Does not handle payments, communications, or crm — use for media and content only.
Watchmode API for finding streaming availability of movies and TV shows across platforms. The API exposes 8 endpoints secured with apiKey authentication.
Monitor Watchmode API operational status and events
Patterns agents use Watchmode API for, with concrete tasks.
★ Media and Content Operations
Use the Watchmode API to perform media operations programmatically. The API provides 8 endpoints covering core functionality including search titles, get title details, get streaming sources.
Call GET /search to search titles
Automated Search Management
Automate search operations by combining multiple Watchmode API endpoints. Agents can get title details and then get streaming sources in a single workflow.
Call GET /title/{id}/details to get title details, then verify the result
AI Agent Integration via Jentic
AI agents discover and call Watchmode API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.
Search Jentic for 'search titles', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.
Credential isolation
Watchmode API apiKey credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search by intent (e.g., 'search titles') and Jentic returns the matching Watchmode API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.
Time to first call
Direct Watchmode API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

Specific to using Watchmode API through Jentic.
What authentication does the Watchmode API use?
The Watchmode API uses an API key passed in the `apiKey` query. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.
Can I search titles with the Watchmode API?
Yes. Use the GET /search endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.
What are the rate limits for the Watchmode API?
Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.
How do I search titles through Jentic?
Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'search titles'. Jentic returns the matching Watchmode API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.
How many endpoints does the Watchmode API have?
The Watchmode API exposes 8 endpoints covering search, titles, sources operations.
