Everything a person was nominated for

Every nomination naming a person, across all ceremonies.

GEThttps://api.uractor.com/person/name={name}/apikey={apikey}

Searches every ceremony for nominations naming this person, in either the primary or the secondary field. Matching is exact and case-sensitive, so pass the name exactly as the Academy records it. Because a film title can also appear in these fields, this endpoint doubles as a title search across all years.
