Updated Netflix list of TV shows

Question

is it possible to have an always updated list of TV series on air on Netflix?

I'd like to get a public URL that I can access to receive something like a JSON o XML object with the list?

I don't know much about Netflix so I don't know whether all TV shows are available for all countries at the same moment, but I'm particularly interested in the list of TV shows available for italian users.

Thanks

Netflix has shut down its public API a year ago: https://gigaom.com/2014/11/14/netflix-is-shutting-down-its-public-api-today/

There's no (legal) way to do this.

ok I did not know it. So I have to buy the service to get APIs?

You basically can't unless you are working very closely with Netflix.

So how do some apps show that a series is on air on Netflix without manually adding this info in their DB?

[Daniel Zolnai]

Can you show me an app which does this? Probably they are adding it by hand since it does not change that often.

For example this Android App: play.google.com/store/apps/…. For example the series Daredevil says it's on air on Netflix.

Here's the source code for this app, you might figure it out from that: github.com/UweTrottmann/SeriesGuide I have also found an unofficial API, maybe this helps you: netflixroulette.net/api
