Hello! As my title suggests, is the API to be used if I want to create an export file of all of my shows? I am needing a JSON or CSV file. I hope I’m making sense.

This would require the User API, which is only accessible to users with a Premium account; the get /user/follows/shows endpoint returns it in a JSON format, which you could save to a file.

I am premium. I did the API Authorize thing but nothing happened.
Just to make sure, these are the full steps:
1. Go to the User API
2. Click Authorize in the top right and enter:
Username: Keyyyyyy
Password: API Key from your dashboard
(Not the password you use to login to TVMaze)
3. Click Authorise
4. Click Get /user/follows/shows to expand it
5. Set embed to 'shows' if you want the show details, or leave blank if the TVMaze ID is sufficient
6. Click Try it out!
Note: This does not download a file, it simply executes the request; it's intended to be used as an API
7. Copy the response body section into a file (e.g. Shows.json)
Thank you!
