Like a video in Youtube without API key?

I have a app with button as like-button of youtube and videoId of a video.
Before I get sessionid, cookies from webviewclient with a google account.
How to like that video then video appear in my likelist video in youtube without Youtube API?
I am grateful for any help.
the Video.rate method will allow you to submit a like or dislike on a video though the YouTube API.
This method does not require an API key it does though requier authorization
You Will need to use Oauth2 to authorize the user to your application who will be making the link
Using one of the following scopes.

Programmatically get Current Playing YouTube Video

I want to authenticate user Google account and fetch currently playing video ID, title or URL. I looked into YouTube Data API and wasn't able to find any relevant endpoint. Is it possible to do the same?

Permissions to access someone's private videos on YouTube

We're working on an integration with youtube channels (using Youtube Data Api v3). We need to access the videos (private also) on our user's channels.
The flow is the following:
User authorizes his/her youtube account on our site using OAuth.
We show user the list of videos on user's youtube channel.
User selects some of them (they can be private) and sends us for processing.
We need to somehow access the actual video files which the user asks us to process.
The issue is that youtube does not give any streaming URLs or download links.
Looks like, the API provides only iframe embedded code, which works ONLY for the browser, where the user is actually logged into youtube.
How can we access(can we?!) the private video, if we have the OAuth access-token of the video owner?
The YouTube Data API lets you incorporate functions normally executed on the YouTube website into your own website or application. The lists below identify the different types of resources that you can retrieve using the API. The API also supports methods to insert, update, or delete many of these resources. This in a sense means that you can see most of what you can see on the YouTube website including uploading new videos.
Downloading Youtube videos is against their Terms of Service, so the API does not support that.
Page linked above refers to Youtube ToS that states:
You shall not download any Content unless you see a “download” or similar link displayed by YouTube on the Service for that Content.
YouTube partners may have access to this feature in their API (no idea i have never seen the api), if you have access to this i suggest you contact your manager directly they should be able to instruct you on how to access it assuming the feature exists.

Can we get user's YouTube data (history, recommended videos, ...) through YouTube API?

I'm new to YouTube API. Is it possible to get user's data if he is authenticated into my application using his Google account.
The YouTube Api v2 used to have a feature like this if i remember correctly. Unforutnatly that API has long since been shut down.
Activites.list which just gives a list of video's recommend that the user watch. There is nothing for History of what videos the user has watched or liked.
Authenticated:
If the user is authenticated you can use the home parameter which is used to show the videos that would be recommend to said user by YouTube
Set this parameter's value to true to retrieve the activity feed that displays on the YouTube home page for the currently authenticated user.

Can access_token generated by YouTube API help to play a private video

A person has some private YouTube videos and he does not want the videos to be directly shared with any other user. If he generates an access_token with YouTube API using his credentials, can the access_token be anyway used to play the videos by other user ?
There is no way to set access token, but if the user makes the videos unlisted, it will still be unshared ut since only user would know the ids, he can watch with iframe API.
If user doesn't know the ids, he can list with Data API using the token.
