Box Office Mojo API endpoint
Use Crawlora's Box Office Mojo brand API to extract supported public Box Office Mojo data as structured JSON. This page includes request parameters, cURL examples, response schema, error behavior, credit cost, and a Playground link for testing before integration.
/boxofficemojo/brandReturns normalized release rows from a public Box Office Mojo brand page. Pass exactly one of `id`, `path`, or `url`. Developers commonly use this endpoint for data enrichment, monitoring, research dashboards, internal automation, and agent-native workflows that need repeatable structured public web data. Authentication uses the documented Crawlora headers, and usage is metered with the credit cost shown on this page.
Request parameters are generated from the active endpoint catalog. Required values must be sent before Crawlora can call the upstream public web data source.

| Status | Common failure case |
|---|---|
| 400 | Invalid input or missing required parameter |
| 429 | Plan or endpoint rate limit exceeded |

| data.has_more | boolean | No | false | HasMore is true when this page returned a full page of rows (100), so a higher offset may return additional results. Box Office Mojo's taxonomy detail pages paginate at 100 rows/page with no total-count marker, so this is a page-size heuristic, not an exact "more data exists" signal. | ||
