The source
Captions: download

What you need to understand is the diffidence between private and public user data. Public data is just that public anyone can access it. Youtube Video search for example searches for public youtube videos.
Videos captions download Downloads a caption track. The caption track is returned in its original format unless the request specifies a value for the tfmt parameter and in its original language unless the request specifies a value for the tlang parameter.
This data is private data. It can only be accessed by the captions on a video with the permission and Authorization of the owner of the video.. In you are currently using an api key denoted by key= which is only used for accessing public data. You will need to be authenticated using one of the below scopes in order to access this information.
This request requires authorization with at least one of the following scopes (read more about authentication and authorization).
Scope
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.force-ssl
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtubepartner

Youtube API partner, cannot set contentDetails

Having a youtube partner account, I need to programmaticly set the 'usage policy' of the monetization section.
When I update this field from the youtube interface for my video, I can see that the contentDetails/regionRestriction have been correctly updated.
But when I programmaticly call the update YouTube Data API v3, setting the contentDetails/regionRestriction seems to have no effect.
Which API should I call in order to programmaticly update this field (contentDetails/regionRestriction)?
Actually the process is a little bit more complicated than that.
You cannot directly set these values using the upload API.
After the upload, you have to use a contentManager account to create a policy (or use a default one) , create an asset and set the ownership of the asset. This is where you can set the restrictionRegion section. After that, you have to claim the uploaded content with your video id, policy id and asset id.

Youtube API: Get the channel or username from the videoID

I've hunted around, and I'm not seeing how it's possible to fetch any user info by using only a videoID (from a video that a user uploaded), preferably without oAuth. I just need either the user's channel or user name.
https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/videos/list responds only with video info and requires oAuth.
So, for example. Given the "v" id in this following url, I could fetch the channel id, UCAIIYxc9Q5uHOUeoF3EWzkA, without requiring the user's permission. (this is all public anyway):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FH2zbHrRY9A
Any ideas?
Use the API: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/videos/list
The call would be https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?part=snippet&id=FH2zbHrRY9A&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
channelID will be in the snippet returned.

How to access private Videos with oembed

I have videos embedded on a protected website via the old API.
I want to switch to the new API. All I need is an embed-code for a PRIVATE video.
Normally I would call: http://www.dailymotion.com/services/oembed?url=
But this does not work for a private video.
I already have a mapping-table for the old video-IDs to the new URLs.
I also have an API-Key and API-Secret.
Is there some example code on how to get the embed-URL for a private video via the API with PHP-SDK?
Thanks for help.
To request the embed url you can request the embed_urlĀ field from the api https://developer.dailymotion.com/api#video-embed_url-field
In php, the call is:
$api->get(
'/video/<videoID>',
array('fields' => array('embed_url'))
);
If your video is private, you'll have to use authentication (https://developer.dailymotion.com/api#authentication) to be able to access embed url information. This section https://developer.dailymotion.com/tools/sdks#sdk-php-authentication will shows you how to do this in php.

DMCloud API to DM Partner API mapping ( PHP SDK )

I am in process of migrating from DMCloud to DM Partner Program and was wondering if there was an equivalent for,
get_embed_url()
get_stream_url()
Link to dmcloud documentation
Goal:
To be able to receive embed urls from DM for private videos. It seems DM's player API returns iframe and link is not signed / perishable.
Thanks.
With Dailymotion API, you can query the following fields on the video object:
embed_url which is the url to embed the video. If your video is private, this query returns an url to embed the video with an id beginning by "k", it is the private id of the video. If you share it (embed the video on a public web page), the video is no longer "private" (any user checking the code will be able to access the embed url).
stream_source_url and all others stream_*_url fields. It refers to the URL of this video source. This field has some protections:
only the owner of the video can retrieve it, (s)he has to pass a valid access token otherwise this field returns null
the url can only be consumed by the user who made the api call
the url returned is valid for 2 days
this field is rate limited

YouTube REST API to get playlist not working for my channel?

I am trying to get all the playlist feed URLs from the YouTube channel in my iOS application.
Below is the URL to get the XML data consists of the required contents.
https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/thenewboston/playlists?v=2
This is working fine, which results in the response of an XML with data.
But when I change this to my username nothing is retrieved. I have couple of playlists in my channel.
My Attempts:
Attempt 1:
I have googled and cross checked my channel's privacy settings which is Public in default.
Am I making any wrong? Please let me know your comments.
Attempt 2:
When I try like this in browser, http://www.youtube.com/user/myusername
getting "This channel is not available at the moment. Please try again later.".
The same url is working fine for thenewboston.
Try this
https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?v=2&author=USER_NAME&orderby=published
This will fetch all the user videos.
I have found the solution:
Below is the format that I have tried.
https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/userId/playlists?v=2
But it seems there is some change in the API.
To request a feed of another user's playlists, send a GET request to the following URL. This request does not require authentication.In the URL above, you should replace the text userId with the user's YouTube user ID. For backward compatibility purposes, the API also supports having the user's YouTube username specified instead.
To find the userId in YouTube : (Follow the steps below)
Click the arrow on top right after login to your YouTube account.
Select YouTube settings.
Select the link Advanced and find the YouTube User Id there.
Reference : YouTube API v.2.0
