fields#

Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

Type: string

onBehalfOfContentOwner#

Note: This parameter is intended exclusively for YouTube content partners.

The onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter indicates that the request's authorization credentials identify a YouTube CMS user who is acting on behalf of the content owner specified in the parameter value. This parameter is intended for YouTube content partners that own and manage many different YouTube channels. It allows content owners to authenticate once and get access to all their video and channel data, without having to provide authentication credentials for each individual channel. The CMS account that the user authenticates with must be linked to the specified YouTube content owner.

Type: string

onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel#

This parameter can only be used in a properly authorized request. Note: This parameter is intended exclusively for YouTube content partners.

The onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel parameter specifies the YouTube channel ID of the channel to which a video is being added. This parameter is required when a request specifies a value for the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter, and it can only be used in conjunction with that parameter. In addition, the request must be authorized using a CMS account that is linked to the content owner that the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter specifies. Finally, the channel that the onBehalfOfContentOwnerChannel parameter value specifies must be linked to the content owner that the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter specifies.

A playlistItem resource identifies another resource, such as a video, that is included in a playlist. In addition, the playlistItem resource contains details about the included resource that pertain specifically to how that resource is used in that playlist.

YouTube uses playlists to identify special collections of videos for a channel, such as:

uploaded videos
favorite videos
positively rated (liked) videos
watch history
watch later To be more specific, these lists are associated with a channel, which is a collection of a person, group, or company's videos, playlists, and other YouTube information.

You can retrieve the playlist IDs for each of these lists from the channel resource for a given channel. You can then use the playlistItems.list method to retrieve any of those lists. You can also add or remove items from those lists by calling the playlistItems.insert and playlistItems.delete methods. For example, if a user gives a positive rating to a video, you would insert that video into the liked videos playlist for that user's channel.

The part parameter serves two purposes in this operation. It identifies the properties that the write operation will set as well as the properties that the API response will include.

Note that this method will override the existing values for all of the mutable properties that are contained in any parts that the parameter value specifies. For example, a playlist item can specify a start time and end time, which identify the times portion of the video that should play when users watch the video in the playlist. If your request is updating a playlist item that sets these values, and the request's part parameter value includes the contentDetails part, the playlist item's start and end times will be updated to whatever value the request body specifies. If the request body does not specify values, the existing start and end times will be removed and replaced with the default settings.

rating (required)#

Specifies the rating to record.

Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

Type: string

forContentOwner#

Note: This parameter is intended exclusively for YouTube content partners.

The forContentOwner parameter restricts the search to only retrieve resources owned by the content owner specified by the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter. The user must be authenticated using a CMS account linked to the specified content owner and onBehalfOfContentOwner must be provided.

Type: boolean

forDeveloper#

The forDeveloper parameter restricts the search to only retrieve videos uploaded via the developer's application or website. The API server uses the request's authorization credentials to identify the developer. Therefore, a developer can restrict results to videos uploaded through the developer's own app or website but not to videos uploaded through other apps or sites.

Type: boolean

forMine#

The forMine parameter restricts the search to only retrieve videos owned by the authenticated user. If you set this parameter to true, then the type parameter's value must also be set to video.

Type: boolean

location#

The location parameter, in conjunction with the locationRadius parameter, defines a circular geographic area and also restricts a search to videos that specify, in their metadata, a geographic location that falls within that area. The parameter value is a string that specifies latitude/longitude coordinates e.g. (37.42307,-122.08427).

The location parameter value identifies the point at the center of the area.
The locationRadius parameter specifies the maximum distance that the location associated with a video can be from that point for the video to still be included in the search results.The API returns an error if your request specifies a value for the location parameter but does not also specify a value for the locationRadius parameter.

Type: string

locationRadius#

topicId#

The topicId parameter indicates that the API response should only contain resources associated with the specified topic. The value identifies a Freebase topic ID.

Type: string

type#

The type parameter restricts a search query to only retrieve a particular type of resource. The value is a comma-separated list of resource types.

Type: string

userIp#

Deprecated. Please use quotaUser instead.

Type: string

videoCaption#

The videoCaption parameter indicates whether the API should filter video search results based on whether they have captions. If you specify a value for this parameter, you must also set the type parameter's value to video.

Type: string

Potential values: any, closedCaption, none

Binds a YouTube broadcast to a stream or removes an existing binding between a broadcast and a stream. A broadcast can only be bound to one video stream, though a video stream may be bound to more than one broadcast.

Parameters

id (required)#

The id parameter specifies the unique ID of the broadcast that is being bound to a video stream.

Type: string

Identifies the new moderation status of the specified comments.

Type: string

Potential values: heldForReview, published, rejected

banAuthor#

The banAuthor parameter lets you indicate that you want to automatically reject any additional comments written by the comment's author. Set the parameter value to true to ban the author.

Note: This parameter is intended exclusively for YouTube content partners.

The onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter indicates that the request's authorization credentials identify a YouTube CMS user who is acting on behalf of the content owner specified in the parameter value. This parameter is intended for YouTube content partners that own and manage many different YouTube channels. It allows content owners to authenticate once and get access to all their video and channel data, without having to provide authentication credentials for each individual channel. The actual CMS account that the user authenticates with must be linked to the specified YouTube content owner.

Type: string

prettyPrint#

Returns response with indentations and line breaks.

Type: boolean

quotaUser#

An opaque string that represents a user for quota purposes. Must not exceed 40 characters.

Type: string

userIp#

Deprecated. Please use quotaUser instead.

Type: string

set_watermark#

This operation has no parameters

transition_status_of_live_broadcast#

Changes the status of a YouTube live broadcast and initiates any processes associated with the new status. For example, when you transition a broadcast's status to testing, YouTube starts to transmit video to that broadcast's monitor stream. Before calling this method, you should confirm that the value of the status.streamStatus property for the stream bound to your broadcast is active.

Parameters

broadcastStatus (required)#

The broadcastStatus parameter identifies the state to which the broadcast is changing. Note that to transition a broadcast to either the testing or live state, the status.streamStatus must be active for the stream that the broadcast is bound to.

Type: string

Potential values: complete, live, testing

id (required)#

The id parameter specifies the unique ID of the broadcast that is transitioning to another status.

Type: string

Note that this method will override the existing values for all of the mutable properties that are contained in any parts that the parameter value specifies. For example, a broadcast's privacy status is defined in the status part. As such, if your request is updating a private or unlisted broadcast, and the request's part parameter value includes the status part, the broadcast's privacy setting will be updated to whatever value the request body specifies. If the request body does not specify a value, the existing privacy setting will be removed and the broadcast will revert to the default privacy setting.
