“Personal API Key application - Request to skip phone/address”
posted by aroniiiiiSTAFFMOD on May 27, 2025 at 4:59 PM
Hello TMDb Support Team,
I am a student working on a personal, non-commercial project to learn how to use your API for educational purposes.
When I try to apply for a Personal API key, the application form requests my phone number and physical address, which I am uncomfortable providing since this is not a business use.
Could you please advise me on how to obtain a Personal API key without needing to submit my phone number or address?
Thank you very much for your assistance!
Best regards, Aron

My suggestion is just use general address, as phone number use ur or create 2nd phone number, generally phone number will used on some cases.
