Finds every item in an IMDb User's Watchlist.

List Parameter	Description
`user_id`	Specify the User ID for the IMDb Watchlist. This attribute is required. Options: The ID that starts with `ur` found in the URL of the watchlist. (ex. `ur12345678`)
`limit`	Specify how items you want returned by the query. Options: Any Integer `0` or greater where `0` get all items. Default: `0`
`sort_by`	Choose from one of the many available sort options.

Multiple values are supported as a list only a comma-separated string will not work.

The sync_mode: sync and collection_order: custom Setting are recommended since the lists are continuously updated and in a specific order.

YAML Lists Explained

YAML supports different ways to define lists. Below are some common methods:

1. List Within a Mapping

fruits:
  - apple
  - banana
  - cherry

2. Inline Style

fruits: [ apple, banana, cherry ]

Each style can be used depending on your needs. The block style is typically more readable for longer lists, while the inline style is compact and useful for short lists.

YAML Dictionaries Explained

Dictionaries are used to associate key/value pairs that are unordered. Dictionaries can be nested by increasing the indentation, or new dictionaries can be created at the same level by resolving the previous one.

cache: true
cache_expiration: 60

The "keys" are cache and cache_expiration and the "values" are true and 60 respectively.

These filters only work if the URL is to the List View of the Letterboxd list (i.e. it should have /detail/ in the URL) or to an account's Reviews (i.e. it should have /USERNAME/films/reviews/ in the URL).

This filter only works if the URL is to the List View of the Letterboxd list (i.e. it should have /detail/ in the URL).

When title is not provided and the mapping name was not specified as an ID, the default behaviour is to use the mapping name as title for matching.

When mapping_id is not provided and the mapping name was specified as an ID, the default behaviour is to use the mapping name as mapping_id for matching.

When the server does not have a Plex Pass then the Edition Field is not accessible. In this scenario, Kometa will check the movie's filepath for {edition-...} to determine what the edition is.

Each default has a key that when calling to effect a specific collection/overlay you must replace <<key>> with when calling.

You can use current_year to have Kometa use the current year's value. This can be combined with a -# at the end to subtract that number of years. i.e. current_year-2

Filters using the special episodes/tracks filter with the default percent.

Also filters out missing movies/shows from being added to Radarr/Sonarr. These values also cannot use the count modifiers.

The field will be locked if a previous mass_poster_update or mass_background_update was run, or if an Overlay has been applied.

Kometa checks for the Overlay label on the item in Plex to determine if an Overlay is applied.
