I'm creating a website for users to post their videos on a particular topic. The videos will be processed with an intermediate server and then uploaded to each user's YouTube channel. However, I would like to know if the YouTube API, lets you know the number of likes you get each of these videos on YouTube.
Thank you for helping me

This is where to look. Please invest some effort of your own before asking on SO. Your question is easily solvable by using a search engine.
If you don't yet know how the YouTube API works, inform yourself first. Once you do know and were able to try something out, but are stuck, I encourage you to ask another question with your particular problem (after researching, of course).

I am working on a personal program to use with my Google account. I don't have a custom website or domain to use. Basically, the idea of my request was to create a personal bot that would comment "First" on a video as a joke between my friends. I looked into the YouTube API a bit, but I got differing answers on the capabilities of the v3 data API. I found the commentThread page but am also confused about its usage. If anyone could give me a basic idea on if this project is possible, I would love to hear it.
welcome to Stack Overflow!
As you said, you want to create a comment when a video uploaded. YouTube has provide the webhooks for this.
You can see the docs push_notifications. I think that is what you want. :)
There is a website called: TubeSift
This tool determines whether a video is "monetized" or not.
My simple question is...
Is there a way to determine if a specific YouTube video is monetized (can show in-stream ads) via some YouTube API?
If yes, which YouTube API?
If no, how then might TubeSift be determining this? Scraping the response?
Important distinction: this would be a video that you DON'T have authentication or credentials to manage - ie: it's someone else's video.
Similar questions asking slightly different things
youtube api to get channel monetization status?
Disclaimer
I realize this question seems off-topic because it doesn't have a code example but YouTube's How to Get Help says to basically ask questions here on StackOverflow for help.
We support the YouTube Data API on Stack Overflow. Google engineers
monitor and answer questions with the youtube-api, youtube-data-api,
and youtube-v3-api tags.
There's really nowhere else to ask.
Youtube provides API to YouTube content partners. I also checked the tubetarget and used scraping also but scraping is very slow as compared to the tubetarget
See this page to get enrolled.
According to youtube: When using delegation in the YouTube Data API, the onBehalfOfContentOwner parameter is always required. The parameter's value is an ID that uniquely identifies the content owner. You can retrieve the ID programmatically by calling the YouTube Content ID API's contentOwners.list method.

Please let me know if you are able to get Content Id API
In my opinion, i think if the video is greater than 10 minutes, therefore that video is being monetized, i read somewhere before that a video needs to have at least 10 minutes in order to be monetized, and obviously we can get the video duration via the API.
The json key is:
+"contentDetails": {#213 ▼
+"duration": "PT4M21S"
The time is formatted as an ISO 8601 string. PT stands for Time Duration, 4M is 4 minutes, and 13S is 13 seconds.
But the way Tubesift does it is just an intelligent guess or maybe some randomizing the "monetized" tagged of a video.
Hope that helps.
The sorting is not working as expected since a few hours.

What is going wrong?
In case you are looking to get the latest videos of a channel:
Get the channels upload playlist from Channels
Get the latest videos in the channels upload playlist from PlaylistItems
Alternatively, you can use the channels RSS feed:
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id={ChannelId}
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?user={User}
This does not replace the full search sorted by date function however.
Thanks YouTube for making me work on a Sunday, all I wanted was to watch the latest videos from my favorite channels. At least I don't have to wait for a fix anymore, good luck to those less lucky!

YouTube is aware the search/sorting functions aren't working as expected – this is temporary and part of our efforts to better respond, review and remove graphic, violative content from YouTube. Thanks for your patience while we work through this. Will update this thread when these features are working normally again, feel free to subscribe for updates.
Bug reports for this include:
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/128673031
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/128673552
Both have an official comment from Google:
Thank you all for bringing this up here. These specific filters have been currently disabled on both YouTube.com and through the APIs. We should have updates on this soon. Thanks again.
Not sure how credible that is:
Just confirming that this is only temporary, and related to YouTube's efforts to better respond, review and remove graphic, violative content from YouTube. Thanks for your patience while we work through this.

I'm working on a website that has a need to accept user-submitted videos. After some research, it seemed like YouTube Direct would be a good fit for our purposes. Most Google products are very well-designed, so why should YouTube Direct be any different?
Unfortunately, I can't find a working implementation of YouTube Direct to explore. I've found several broken versions...

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/16/hopenhagen-ambassador-con_n_356950.html
...but they all seem to be plagued with errors.
Does anyone know of a working, error-free implementation of YouTube Direct? Is this a neglected or failed Google product? Is there a better solution to accept user video?
Thank you for any help or recommendations that come to mind.
You can check out project page for YouTube Direct Lite.
There is also a live demo available.
I test with browser with the link I get from "http://www.youtube.com/get_video_info?&video_id=xx" to see if it is be able to download.
After remove some parameters from original link, some works but some still don't.
I read some post here but most of are pretty old. A lot of change since then.
I wonder if there are somebody working on this recently.
The purpose I need this is because my youtube view program need a better quality video to display.
This is link doesn't work:

What wrong with it? I removed fallback_path and replace sig with signature.
The working link is for webm. This is for h264. Both have the same kind of parameters.
And this is working now.

That's not a supported method of interacting with YouTube. You need to use one of the official YouTube Player mechanisms to display YouTube videos.
Please familiarize yourself with the YouTube API Terms of Service if you have any more questions.
