Is there a way to check Premiere's date and time via YouTube API? - youtube-api

Is there a way to check Premiere's date and time?
User can upload video to YouTube and schedule its first run. It can be done by setting a video as Premiere -> https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9080341?hl=en
I would like to know the time and date when a video will be "live"; when I can actually watch it.
I can't find any parameter in /videos or /search that could help.
Only liveStreamingDetails or eventType=upcoming belongs to category of what I search for but they don't provide information about date and time.
Best,

Playlist video API missed certain posts when ran on particular day

I use Youtube APIs to keep track of the brand assets of a certain channel.
Playlist API: https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems
There is a weekly refresh on the platform. In one of the refresh, playlist API missed a certain post in the corresponding week. Post published date was well within the range.
Any justifiable reason for this issue? Just want to get the root cause and probability for this issue to occur, so that I can build some safeguard on my platforms if required.
To my knowledge the result set obtained from PlaylistItems endpoint should be exact -- no fuzziness implied like in the case of Search endpoint. Therefore I am inclined to believe -- you did not provided actual data along with your question -- that there is something else that caused your issue.
Often users of the API overlook the fact that any video could first be uploaded as private and only later made public.
publishedAt (datetime)
The date and time that the video was published. Note that this time might be different than the time that the video was uploaded. For example, if a video is uploaded as a private video and then made public at a later time, this property will specify the time that the video was made public.

Is it possible to do a search for videos updated after date? [YouTube-Data-Api]

I am wondering if it is possible to get a list of videos that have been updated after a specified date? I am writing an application that helps users manage their videos titles, thumbnails, tags, descriptions, etc. This app really targets content creators that put out episodic content on a set schedule but also includes data of past videos. I am currently able to retrieve videos but I don't want to have to retrieve every video at the start of the application. It's both costly as far as the quota is concerned and time consuming. What I would like to do, is retrieve every video when the application starts up for the first time and store the data (done) and then any time after that, retrieve only new videos and/or videos that have been updated since the last date checked. If this is possible please let me know how I would go about this.
If not and a Google engineer happens to see this, this functionality would make for a very useful feature.
Maybe you want to use publishedAfter and publishedBefore from ressource search.list.
The publishedAfter parameter indicates that the API response should
only contain resources created after the specified time. The value is
an RFC 3339 formatted date-time value (1970-01-01T00:00:00Z). (string)
The publishedBefore parameter indicates that the API response should
only contain resources created before the specified time. The value is
an RFC 3339 formatted date-time value (1970-01-01T00:00:00Z). (string)

Youtube Analytics: Filter videos only uploaded in given time period

You could create a group of the videos you are looking for. On the top right of YTA, click on Groups -> Create video group.

YouTube Monthly views checker API and PHP?

My question is if there's a way to get the monthly original views. From a YouTube channel with Google Authentication system and YouTube APIs. Because i'm writing a little script that say's like when a curtain person get over a amount of, monthly views they will get sended further in to the site and get a document send through. Else they go back to the homepage, Is it possible to do this so yes how because i can't seem to find a way
You can use the YouTube Analytics API to run a report against a given video to request the number of "uniques" aggregated by month, for an arbitrary date range. The report definition would look something like
ids=channel==UC...
dimensions=month
metrics=uniques
filters=video==VIDEO_ID
start-date=2013-01-01
end-date=2013-01-01
You'd have to run that report once against every video in the channel, though, and add up the totals.
Note that the end-date is NOT the last day of the month you're looking for, it's the first day of that month again (i.e. it's a "month identifier", not a range of days).
You should note that you need to have an OAuth 2 token for the owner of the channel with the appropriate YouTube Analytics (and Data API, to get the list of videos) scopes in order to run that report; you can't just run an arbitrary Analytics report for an arbitrary video without being authorized.

Retrieving artist and song information from youtube

A long time ago, I developed a chrome extension that is able to scrobble the songs you listen to on youtube (via your last.fm account). What I did was simply taking the title of the video and assuming it had the proper format: "Artist - Track name" (obviously, I would send a request to last.fm, confirming it was a proper artist/song pair, before scrobbling). Recently (well, probably a couple of months ago) youtube started to provide artist and song information directly under the video (see image), and I was wondering how best to extract this information.
I was hoping to retrieve the information via the youtube feed api call (http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/videoID?alt=json), but it doesn't apear to be featured in the returned json element. Alternatly, I could try extracting it via xpath, but I figure that might lead to complications when no artist/song information is present. If anybody could help me extract this information, and thereby greatly improving my extension, I would be very grateful.
I don't think YouTube API can provide you with the artist name
as the videos can be other things that songs
you need to stick with what you have , unless they updated there API
