Retrieve Channels-Tab from YouTube Channel via YouTube-API - youtube-api

Question

As you may know some Content-Creators on YouTube not only got one Channel. Some Channels have a Channel-Tab where you can see the other channels hosted by the creator. I would like to get these channels, but unfortunately the YouTube-API can't retrieve the data via channels: list. Is there a parameter or another function how I can get this information?
Channel example: https://www.youtube.com/c/DunklerParabelritter/channels
Thank you in advance,
Aaron!

Answer 1

It seems that once again YouTube Data API v3 doesn't provide a basic feature.
I would recommend you to use my open-source YouTube operational API. Indeed by requesting the JSON document https://yt.lemnoslife.com/channels?part=channels&id=CHANNEL_ID the data you are looking for are in item["channelSections"].
Note that the channel id associated to the channel you shared is UCK4LDHLxBqiAtcwCm4z7DRg, so you would obtain:
{
"kind": "youtube#channelListResponse",
"etag": "NotImplemented",
"items": [
{
"kind": "youtube#channel",
"etag": "NotImplemented",
"id": "UCK4LDHLxBqiAtcwCm4z7DRg",
"channelSections": [
{
"title": "Mit Empfehlung des Dunklen!",
"sectionChannels": [
{
"channelId": "UCWZu-P34DVZUVrYAROU3Cmw",
"title": "Prinz",
