**Category:** Entertainment | **Website:** [letterboxd.com/](https://letterboxd.com/) | **Docs:** [parse.bot/marketplace/9229cdd2-dc02-439b-a767-fdf366879365/letterboxd-com-api](https://parse.bot/marketplace/9229cdd2-dc02-439b-a767-fdf366879365/letterboxd-com-api)

Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/letterboxd/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

Full call contract: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/api-reference/introduction

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents

## Endpoints

### Get film

Retrieve full details for a single film by its slug, including title, year, director, runtime in minutes, average community rating (out of 5), and canonical URL. Returns input_not_found when the slug does not match any film.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `slug` | string | Yes | Film slug from Letterboxd URL path (e.g. 'inception', 'the-dark-knight'). |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/letterboxd/get-film \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"slug":"<string>"}'
```

### Get user profile

Retrieve a Letterboxd user's public profile including bio, film stats, favorite films, first page of watchlist and liked films, and full follower list. Watchlist and likes return the first page (up to ~28 items); watchlist_count reflects the total. Returns input_not_found when the username does not exist.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `username` | string | Yes | Letterboxd username (e.g. 'bug39'). |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/letterboxd/get-user-profile \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"username":"<string>"}'
```

### Search films

Full-text search over Letterboxd's film catalog. Returns title, year, director, URL, and slug for each match. Results are auto-iterated across pages; each page returns up to 20 films. Films without a listed director return null for that field.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `page` | integer | No | Page number for paginated results. |
| `query` | string | Yes | Search query to match against film titles. |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/letterboxd/search-films \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"page":"<integer>","query":"<string>"}'
```
