Is it possible to use the YouTube API to automatically create a comment when a new YouTube video is uploaded?

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. :)

Get a review link with Google My Business API

Is there a way to get the link of a review using the GMB APIs?
The closest to what I need is this:
https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/113400145807499011881/place/ChIJSRSm38NhLxMRBgg2EGMZqKc/
Where the first ID (113400145807499011881) is the ID of the user who left the review, and the second ID (ChIJSRSm38NhLxMRBgg2EGMZqKc) is the place ID.
However, the review object returned by the API does not seem to contain enough information to obtain the reviewer user ID.
Thank you,
Guido
I was searching for a way to get the url to the review overview for a specific location via the API too.
After checking the links, IDs ect. in the API Responses and lots of documentations an tuturials i found NO way to get the link over tha API.
BUT a workarround with a few manual steps can help to find the link (I know that is not a final answer to the question, but maybe it is still helpfull)
go to google search, and search for you Location/ Company that contains the reviews
on the right side you should see a pannel that shows the current stars for your location and a link "xxxx Google-Rezensionen"
klick on this link and copy the url in the browser
(optional remove parameters like "&client" ect.
Check this youtube-video of the Step by Step Tuturial to see a tuturial how you can do this.
newReviewUrl is the Parameter if someone read this:

Likes report on third-party YouTube videos

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).

Youtube API beginner, searching for a list of different terms automatically

I have no idea if I'm allowed to ask questions here, because I'm a complete beginner and I need help for a university paper I want to write. I need to search for quite a big list of terms in the YouTube API with a specific regioncode, location, locationradius, publishedafter and publishedbefore term.
So basically I need to do queries like these, but for the same search term I have to change these parameters a few times and I have to do that for a lot of search terms.
Does anyone have a good guide that shows how to do this? Or would someone be willing to help me with this?
Thanks in advance
You can find YouTube API search examples in every major language in this Github repository. The reference for this API endpoint as well as the list of parameters available for the search.list call is available here.
You'll need an API key to use the API which you can get by:
Going to the API Console (create an developer account and API project if you haven't already).
Enabling the YouTube API on your API project on this page.
Clicking Add credentials > API key and selecting "sever key"

How to get a youtube.com/user/xxx channel url

Just starting playing with YouTube, and trying to get a channel url in the form youtube.com/user/{any user name} for a new channel. This is for a third party who want the link in that format.
I can only seem to generate youtube.com/channel/... links
I do not have 500 subscribers yet so cannot create bespoke url
Have I missed something obvious, or is the .../user/... pattern a leftover from pre Google+ integration?
Looking forward to finding out what I have missed - thanks in advance ;)
/user/ URLs are no longer required for channels. This can be further confirmed here. But still, they are supported. You can make you own channel after your username by going to:
Youtube Account Advanced View and clicking on the Move channel to Brand Accountlink.
