I am working on Youtube API v3 .. I was succeeded to get videos of a Youtube Channel. and then I was trying to get the thumbnail of a channel but couldn't be able to do that... can someone here have any solution for this ? I think the API doesn't return thumbnail of a channel
NOTE : I need the Thumbnail of a channel not the videos inside..
code:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?key=API_KEY&channelId=CHANNEL_ID&
part=snippet&order=date&maxResults=40

I'm trying to get a Youtube channel featured or default video ID from youtube API.How can I get the youTube featured-video URL using the youTube API?
You can use videoCategories and guideCategories for that.
Here's the full blog.
GDL video.
Using the instructions here, I was able to get a list of all videos on a channel on except videos which are unlisted:
Youtube Api to fetch all videos on a Channel
The YouTube API documentation is not clear on whether I was able to retrieve unlisted channel using the playlistItems request, and this post seems to indicate that the behavior has changed multiple times:
Youtube API returning unlisted videos
Is there any solution on being able to retrieve a full list unlisted videos from the API from the channel? Also, for this specific channel, this API account is connected to the YouTube brand account as a Manager, and I'm not sure whether that changes the behavior of the API.
We have a website which displays our YouTube video channels and favourite videos in our channel, etc. We were using Youtube Data API v2.0 to fetch data.
for example:
https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/" + userid + "/playlists?v=2&alt=json-in-script&orderby=" + orderFeedsBy + "&callback=?
But now these links return "NetworkError: 410 Gone". We checked the new YouTube Javascript API, but we didn't understand how to migrate to the new API. Please help us to fix this.
This URL will return JSON with video ids for a playlist:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?part=id&playlistId={PLAYLIST_ID}&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
You will need an API Key from console.developers.google.com and the playlist ID.
You can get a list of playlist IDs for a channel with a URL like this:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlists?part=id&channelId={CHANNEL_ID}&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
Documentation at developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/
Youtube stopped support to V2, so to get data from V3 use the below URL
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?part=snippet&maxResults=50&playlistId={PLAYLIST_ID}&key={KEY}
Want to upload videos to my channel on youtube directly from android and iOS using youtube API v3.
I know "client login" of Youtube API v2 is now deprecated and cannot use any more now, but is there any method in V3 API that we can use now to achieve the video upload to my channel on youtube without user interaction or without user prompt to ask username or password?
Letting other people upload random videos to your channel is not recommended. That's why OAuth2 only lets them to upload to their own channel. You can use YouTube Direct Lite for people to upload to their channel, but you can still collect those videos into your playlist.

Getting a thumbnail of a YouTube video is done by the following request :
http://img.youtube.com/vi/'.$youtube_v_code.'/1.jpg
How can I get the thumbnail image of a YouTube User or Channel ?
You need use gdata to access api from google, I think this is the easiest way.
