First off, thank you all for your time and help.
Basically before the recent changes to YouTube, I was working with the YouTube API on a website that would allow users to reply to comments from my own website. Before the changes this was available through the YouTube Data API version 2.0. My question is, is there any way to still do this? A quick search on Google leads me to believe this is no longer possible (https://developers.google.com/youtube/2.0/developers_guide_protocol_comments).
However my understanding is with the new YouTube changes a user needs a Google+ account to reply to comments (I'm pretty ignorant on this subject, so please correct me if I'm wrong). I was wondering if the Google+ API had a way to reply to YouTube comments.
Or if anyone else knows a way to reply to a YouTube comment from another website, please let me know!
Thank you!
"replying directly to comments via the YouTube API is no longer supported. At this time, there's no way of replying to a new-style comment via the YouTube API." [Link]
EDIT: It is not possible at the current time, though they are bring out a new messaging API "later this year".

im trying to finish the YouTube API Services compliance review for our iOS app.
We resolved all open requests from YouTube a while ago. Sadly we cant reach our YouTube Service compliance review editor anymore. Applying again fails always with the comment that we submitted an irrelevant form. The Google support sent us here to get help.
Can somebody of the Google YouTube team give us further instruction how to resolve this issue.
Thanks :)

So I am creating a small telegram-twitter bot for friends and me. So far everything works, I get the tweets and forward them to the telegram chat. All cool. But then I figured that it would be cool to display if Twitter deemed the Tweet to be incorrect or harmful. Does anybody know how retrieve or access this information without scraping the webpage?
I checked the API and even the labs api, but couldn't find anything.
Cheers
There is nothing in the Twitter API that provides this information.
My site is http://YouGamePlay.com. I am using the YouTube API. I'm almost finished (happy) with the site and would like to know how to get it on the YouTube Showcase or to at least know the requirements to do so.
Thanks,

I'm submitting your site on your behalf. I will get back with more details.
Rephrasing of the question:
Using the youtube api v 3.0 with oauth, when the user is sent to login, they have more than one option: e.g. the linked youtube account and the google account. The two different logins (access tokens) have different access to the api. I need the ability to just sent the user to log in to their proper youtube account (if they have one). How can my app do this? The user currently will have no idea which option they are supposed to choose, even if the app might be able to tell which they have chosen afterwards.
https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?response_type=code&client_id=1056190619576.apps.googleusercontent.com&redirect_uri=urn:ietf:wg:oauth:2.0:oob&scope=https:%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fyoutube
original phrasing of the question:
OK, this is getting really really confusing. My youtube account uses a gmail, so I think that it is safe to say that it is linked to my google account (if such a thing linkage does exist). A couple of days ago I was on youtube, and the web site roped me into giving my youtube account its own google+ account (as far as I could tell). My gmail/google account does not have google+. Anyway, shortly thereafter I undid the linking of a google+ account to the channel. Ominously, at this point youtube indicated that this was only temporary.
And the net effect of this is: I can't use the youtube api with the youtube account. It says nolinkedyoutubeaccount .
So, the youtube api seems unusuable to me. This confusion is enough to make a person's head spin. But can anyone suggest a solution to get my account working with the api again?
Edit: I have managed to reproduce the error (more or less) with a newly opened youtube account. More here: https://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/detail?id=4860
These blog posts should help explain what's going on

Based on what you describe, I think things are working as intended, but you do need to be careful to ensure that you select the correct channel when going through the OAuth 2 flow.
Recently under some youtube videos there have been a Twitter feed, showing all tweets relevant to the video and what people are saying about it.
I was wondering how I could implement it on my website, except showing tweets relevant to my company's name.
Thanks in advance :D
Well this is a very general question so I'm providing you with a general answer. Use the Twitter API to pull data that is marked with #YourCompanyName or #YourCompany.

Pretty straight forward.
