The drug and drug target mapping tool shows the top 3 PDB IDs for each drug based on the drug target sequence similarity search and ligand id search. Is there a way to get all the PDB ids of the drug-target PDB files and not only the top 3?

I know you can get this information after clicking the "find" button under the last column of the output table (the column named "All PDB"), but I have a query of several hundreds of drugs and I'm not willing to do it manually for each result.

Simpler option would be to not use the query interface and directly parse the CSV file found on that page.

I just read @llrs comment and I guess it's very much the same spirit as my own - download the data and query it programmatically. I see now (was on mobile earlier) that the 'FIND' URL links out to a BLAST search. so it might be as easy as retrieving the relevant protein sequence and replicating the URL. Or if you want to go a different route and finding all PDB identifiers with the given ligand, cross-reference the above data with what you'd find here
