I have written a bot for Wikidata that links the page IDs of TMDb to the respective elements of Wikidata, looping through all existing pages. I was now dealing with collections but I noticed that as long as a collection exists (.../collection/119) then there is no problem but if the collection does not exist (.../collection/120) then the URL redirects to the same movie ID (.../movie/120). Is there a URL that specifically shows only collections without redirects?

This sounds like a use case where you would be better off using the daily ID exports. These will only list the valid IDs for each data type. https://developer.themoviedb.org/docs/daily-id-exports

Thank you for your valuable reply, @Sheigutn. Is there any example of use in the API Reference section? I couldn't find it and I'm not understanding how to use the exported file.

Once you have uncompressed the file (.gz is a standard compress file format), each line of the file will be a JSON object which include the most important informations about each movie, as explained in the link provided above by @Sheigutn .
So, to access all the movies, you will just have to browse the file, one line at a time.
