I am working on a Twitter app and I want to find a way to link directly to a retweet.
For example. If user A makes a tweet, and user B retweets it, I want a URL that will take us to user B's profile where the retweet is displayed. What is that unique URL?
I recently needed to get a link to an arbitrary retweet that was too old for the search feature to work.
Here's what I did:
Open the Network Monitor
Visit the timeline of the retweeter
Scroll until you find the retweet
Look at the Network Monitor, open the latest request to the endpoint /UserTweets
Either
go to the "Response" tab and sift through its JSON manually to get the id_str to craft the URL:
or, paste the following into the Console, then right-click on the response, “Copy…Response”, and return to the console to press Enter:
UserTweets = JSON.parse(prompt("Paste the copied Response data:"));
// get the output from that endpoint,
UserTweets
// dig through the packaging,
['data']['user']['result']['timeline_v2']['timeline']['instructions']
// filter out "pinned tweets" metadata,
.filter(cmd => cmd['type'] == "TimelineAddEntries")
// de-batch,
.flatmap(cmd => cmd['entries'])
// filter out "cursor" metadata,
.filter(entry => entry['content']['entryType'] == "TimelineTimelineItem" )
// then dig through a bunch more layers of packaging,
.map(entry => entry['content']['itemContent']['tweet_results']['result'])
// munge the tweets into a more-usable format,
.map(tweet => ({user: tweet['core']['user_results']['legacy'], tweet: tweet['legacy']}))
// filter out non-retweets,
.filter(({tweet}) => tweet['retweeted_status_result'])
// extract just the RT text and URL of the retweet itself,
.map(({user, tweet}) => ({url: `https://twitter.com/${encodeURIComponent(user['screen_name'])}/status/${encodeURIComponent(tweet['id_str'])}`, text: tweet['full_text']}))
// print results.
.forEach(({url, text}) => console.log(url, text))
…et voilà:
https://twitter.com/ThePSF/status/1398372497741946884
Internally, all Retweets are simply special Tweets. This means each Retweet also has an ID (which is stored on id and id_str at the root of the Tweet object). For proof, here's a Retweet from the Twitter Retweets account.
If you're using Tweet Streams (e.g. statuses/filter), you'll be able to pick up this ID from the returned Tweet object of the retweet. From the ID, you can just build a normal Twitter link with https://twitter.com/<username>/status/<retweet id>. Assuming your Retweet object is named retweet, the correct link would be (in JavaScript) `https://twitter.com/${retweet.user.screen_name}/status/${retweet.id_str}`.
If the Retweet is fairly recent, you can do a status search (search/tweets) on the user's profile (i.e. you have to set the q parameter to from:<username>) to find the Retweet. You'll most likely have to cross check the ID of the Tweet you want and the ID of the Retweet you're looking for to be sure, though.
If you're trying to get the Retweet ID of an old Tweet, however, you might have to use Twitter's Premium APIs, which are paid.
JamesTheAwesomeDude's answer worked for me with some light modifications for the new twitter API:
UserTweets = { /*PASTE HERE*/ }
// .timeline changed to .timeline_v2
UserTweets.data.user.result.timeline_v2.timeline.instructions
.filter(cmd => cmd['type'] == "TimelineAddEntries")
.map(cmd => cmd['entries']).flat()
.filter(entry => entry['content']['entryType'] == "TimelineTimelineItem" )
.map(entry => entry['content']['itemContent']['tweet_results']['result'])
// .user changed to .user_results.result
.map(tweet => [tweet['core']['user_results']['result']['legacy'], tweet['legacy']])
.filter(([user, tweet]) => tweet['retweeted_status_result'])
.map(([user, tweet]) => [`https://twitter.com/${user['screen_name']}/status/${tweet['id_str']}`, tweet['full_text']])
.forEach(([url, rt_text]) => console.log(url, rt_text))
We need a video list by channel name of YouTube (using the API).
We can get a channel list (only channel name) by using the below API:
https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/channels?v=2&q=tendulkar
Below is a direct link of channels
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqAEtEr0A0Eo2IVcuWBfB9g
Or
WWW.YouTube.com/channel/HC-8jgBP-4rlI
Now, we need videos of channel >> UCqAEtEr0A0Eo2IVcuWBfB9g or HC-8jgBP-4rlI.
We tried
https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?v=2&uploader=partner&User=UC7Xayrf2k0NZiz3S04WuDNQ
https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?v=2&uploader=partner&q=UC7Xayrf2k0NZiz3S04WuDNQ
But, it does not help.
We need all the videos posted on the channel. Videos uploaded to a channel can be from multiple users thus I don't think providing a user parameter would help...
You need to look at the YouTube Data API. You will find there documentation about how the API can be accessed. You can also find client libraries.
You could also make the requests yourself. Here is an example URL that retrieves the latest videos from a channel:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?key={your_key_here}&channelId={channel_id_here}&part=snippet,id&order=date&maxResults=20
After that you will receive a JSON with video ids and details, and you can construct your video URL like this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v={video_id_here}
First, you need to get the ID of the playlist that represents the uploads from the user/channel:
https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/channels/list#try-it
You can specify the username with the forUsername={username} param, or specify mine=true to get your own (you need to authenticate first). Include part=contentDetails to see the playlists.
GET https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=contentDetails&forUsername=jambrose42&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
In the result "relatedPlaylists" will include "likes" and "uploads" playlists. Grab that "upload" playlist ID.
Also note the upload playlist id is your channelId prefixed with UU instead of UC.
Next, get a list of videos in that playlist:
https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/playlistItems/list#try-it
Just drop in the playlistId!
GET https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?part=snippet%2CcontentDetails&maxResults=50&playlistId=UUpRmvjdu3ixew5ahydZ67uA&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
Here is a video from Google Developers showing how to list all videos in a channel in v3 of the YouTube API.
There are two steps:
Query Channels to get the "uploads" Id. eg https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?id={channel Id}&key={API key}&part=contentDetails
Use this "uploads" Id to query PlaylistItems to get the list of videos. eg https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?playlistId={"uploads" Id}&key={API key}&part=snippet&maxResults=50
To get channels list :
Get Channels list by forUserName:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=snippet,contentDetails,statistics&forUsername=Apple&key=
Get channels list by channel id:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels/?part=snippet,contentDetails,statistics&id=UCE_M8A5yxnLfW0KghEeajjw&key=
Get Channel sections:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channelSections?part=snippet,contentDetails&channelId=UCE_M8A5yxnLfW0KghEeajjw&key=
To get Playlists :
Get Playlists by Channel ID:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlists?part=snippet,contentDetails&channelId=UCq-Fj5jknLsUf-MWSy4_brA&maxResults=50&key=
Get Playlists by Channel ID with pageToken:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlists?part=snippet,contentDetails&channelId=UCq-Fj5jknLsUf-MWSy4_brA&maxResults=50&key=&pageToken=CDIQAA
To get PlaylistItems :
Get PlaylistItems list by PlayListId:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?part=snippet,contentDetails&maxResults=25&playlistId=PLHFlHpPjgk70Yv3kxQvkDEO5n5tMQia5I&key=
To get videos :
Get videos list by video id:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?part=snippet,contentDetails,statistics&id=YxLCwfA1cLw&key=
Get videos list by multiple videos id:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?part=snippet,contentDetails,statistics&id=YxLCwfA1cLw,Qgy6LaO3SB0,7yPJXGO2Dcw&key=
Get comments list
Get Comment list by video ID:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/commentThreads?part=snippet,replies&videoId=el****kQak&key=A**********k
Get Comment list by channel ID:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/commentThreads?part=snippet,replies&channelId=U*****Q&key=AI********k
Get Comment list by allThreadsRelatedToChannelId:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/commentThreads?part=snippet,replies&allThreadsRelatedToChannelId=UC*****ntcQ&key=AI*****k
Here all api's are Get approach.
Based on channel id we con't get all videos directly, that's the important point here.
For integration https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/quickstart/ios?ver=swift
Here is the code that will return all video ids under your channel
<?php
$baseUrl = 'https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/';
// https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/getting-started
$apiKey = 'API_KEY';
// If you don't know the channel ID see below
$channelId = 'CHANNEL_ID';
$params = [
'id'=> $channelId,
'part'=> 'contentDetails',
'key'=> $apiKey
];
$url = $baseUrl . 'channels?' . http_build_query($params);
$json = json_decode(file_get_contents($url), true);
$playlist = $json['items'][0]['contentDetails']['relatedPlaylists']['uploads'];
$params = [
'part'=> 'snippet',
'playlistId' => $playlist,
'maxResults'=> '50',
'key'=> $apiKey
];
$url = $baseUrl . 'playlistItems?' . http_build_query($params);
$json = json_decode(file_get_contents($url), true);
$videos = [];
foreach($json['items'] as $video)
$videos[] = $video['snippet']['resourceId']['videoId'];
while(isset($json['nextPageToken'])){
$nextUrl = $url . '&pageToken=' . $json['nextPageToken'];
$json = json_decode(file_get_contents($nextUrl), true);
foreach($json['items'] as $video)
$videos[] = $video['snippet']['resourceId']['videoId'];
}
print_r($videos);
Note: You can get channel id at
https://www.youtube.com/account_advanced after logged in.
Below is a Python alternative that does not require any special packages. By providing the channel id it returns a list of video links for that channel. Please note that you need an API Key for it to work.
import urllib
import json
def get_all_video_in_channel(channel_id):
api_key = YOUR API KEY
base_video_url = 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v='
base_search_url = 'https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?'
first_url = base_search_url+'key={}&channelId={}&part=snippet,id&order=date&maxResults=25'.format(api_key, channel_id)
video_links = []
url = first_url
while True:
inp = urllib.urlopen(url)
resp = json.load(inp)
for i in resp['items']:
if i['id']['kind'] == "youtube#video":
video_links.append(base_video_url + i['id']['videoId'])
try:
next_page_token = resp['nextPageToken']
url = first_url + '&pageToken={}'.format(next_page_token)
except:
break
return video_links
Thanks to the references shared here and elsewhere, I've made an online script / tool that one can use to obtain all videos of a channel.
It combines API calls to youtube.channels.list, playlistItems, videos. It uses recursive functions to make the asynchronous callbacks run the next iteration upon getting a valid response.
This also serves to limit the actual number of requests made at a time, hence keeping you safe from violating YouTube API rules. Sharing shortened snippets and then a link to the full code. I got around the 50 max results per call limitation by using the nextPageToken value that comes in the response to fetch the next 50 results and so on.
function getVideos(nextPageToken, vidsDone, params) {
$.getJSON("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems", {
key: params.accessKey,
part: "snippet",
maxResults: 50,
playlistId: params.playlistId,
fields: "items(snippet(publishedAt, resourceId/videoId, title)), nextPageToken",
pageToken: ( nextPageToken || '')
},
function(data) {
// commands to process JSON variable, extract the 50 videos info
if ( vidsDone < params.vidslimit) {
// Recursive: the function is calling itself if
// all videos haven't been loaded yet
getVideos( data.nextPageToken, vidsDone, params);
}
else {
// Closing actions to do once we have listed the videos needed.
}
});
}
This got a basic listing of the videos, including id, title, date of publishing and similar. But to get more detail of each video like view counts and likes, one has to make API calls to videos.
// Looping through an array of video id's
function fetchViddetails(i) {
$.getJSON("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos", {
key: document.getElementById("accesskey").value,
part: "snippet,statistics",
id: vidsList[i]
}, function(data) {
// Commands to process JSON variable, extract the video
// information and push it to a global array
if (i < vidsList.length - 1) {
fetchViddetails(i+1) // Recursive: calls itself if the
// list isn't over.
}
});
See the full code here, and live version here. (Edit: fixed github link)
Edit: Dependencies: JQuery, Papa.parse
Short answer:
Here's a library called scrapetube That can help with that.
pip install scrapetube
import scrapetube
import simplejson as json
videos = scrapetube.get_channel("UC9-y-6csu5WGm29I7JiwpnA")
for video in videos:
print(video['videoId'])
print(video['title']['runs'][0]['text'])
print(video['publishedTimeText']['simpleText'])
print('\r\n')
# DEBUG: print(json.dumps(video))
Long answer:
The module mentioned above was created by me due to a lack of any other solutions. Here's what i tried:
Selenium. It worked but had three big drawbacks: 1. It requires a web browser and driver to be installed. 2. has big CPU and memory requirements. 3. can't handle big channels.
Using youtube-dl. Like this:
import youtube_dl
youtube_dl_options = {
'skip_download': True,
'ignoreerrors': True
}
with youtube_dl.YoutubeDL(youtube_dl_options) as ydl:
videos = ydl.extract_info(f'https://www.youtube.com/channel/{channel_id}/videos')
This also works for small channels, but for bigger ones i would get blocked by youtube for making so many requests in such a short time (because youtube-dl downloads more info for every video in the channel).
So i made the library scrapetube which uses the web API to get all the videos.
Try with like the following. It may help you.
https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos?author=cnn&v=2&orderby=updated&alt=jsonc&q=news
Here author as you can specify your channel name and "q" as you can give your search key word.
Since everyone answering this question has problems due to the 500 video limit here's an alternate solution using youtube_dl in Python 3. Also, no API key is needed.
Install youtube_dl: sudo pip3 install youtube-dl
Find out your target channel's channel id. The ID is going to start with UC. Replace the C for Channel with U for Upload (i.e. UU...), this is the upload playlist.
Use the playlist downloader feature from youtube-dl. Ideally you do NOT want to download every video in the playlist which is the default, but only the metadata.
Example (warning -- takes tens of minutes):
import youtube_dl, pickle
# UCVTyTA7-g9nopHeHbeuvpRA is the channel id (1517+ videos)
PLAYLIST_ID = 'UUVTyTA7-g9nopHeHbeuvpRA' # Late Night with Seth Meyers
with youtube_dl.YoutubeDL({'ignoreerrors': True}) as ydl:
playd = ydl.extract_info(PLAYLIST_ID, download=False)
with open('playlist.pickle', 'wb') as f:
pickle.dump(playd, f, pickle.HIGHEST_PROTOCOL)
vids = [vid for vid in playd['entries'] if 'A Closer Look' in vid['title']]
print(sum('Trump' in vid['title'] for vid in vids), '/', len(vids))
Just in three steps:
Subscriptions: list ->
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/subscriptions?part=snippet&maxResults=50&mine=true&access_token={oauth_token}
Channels: list ->
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=contentDetails&id={channel_id}&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
PlaylistItems: list ->
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?part=snippet&playlistId={playlist_id}&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
Recently I had to retrieve all videos from a channel, and according to YouTube developer documentation:
https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/playlistItems/list
function playlistItemsListByPlaylistId($service, $part, $params) {
$params = array_filter($params);
$response = $service->playlistItems->listPlaylistItems(
$part,
$params
);
print_r($response);
}
playlistItemsListByPlaylistId($service,
'snippet,contentDetails',
array('maxResults' => 25, 'playlistId' => 'id of "uploads" playlist'));
Where $service is your Google_Service_YouTube object.
So you have to fetch information from the channel to retrieve the "uploads" playlist that actually has all the videos uploaded by the channel: https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/channels/list
If new with this API, I highly recommend to turn the code sample from the default snippet to the full sample.
So the basic code to retrieve all videos from a channel can be:
class YouTube
{
const DEV_KEY = 'YOUR_DEVELOPPER_KEY';
private $client;
private $youtube;
private $lastChannel;
public function __construct()
{
$this->client = new Google_Client();
$this->client->setDeveloperKey(self::DEV_KEY);
$this->youtube = new Google_Service_YouTube($this->client);
$this->lastChannel = false;
}
public function getChannelInfoFromName($channel_name)
{
if ($this->lastChannel && $this->lastChannel['modelData']['items'][0]['snippet']['title'] == $channel_name)
{
return $this->lastChannel;
}
$this->lastChannel = $this->youtube->channels->listChannels('snippet, contentDetails, statistics', array(
'forUsername' => $channel_name,
));
return ($this->lastChannel);
}
public function getVideosFromChannelName($channel_name, $max_result = 5)
{
$this->getChannelInfoFromName($channel_name);
$params = [
'playlistId' => $this->lastChannel['modelData']['items'][0]['contentDetails']['relatedPlaylists']['uploads'],
'maxResults'=> $max_result,
];
return ($this->youtube->playlistItems->listPlaylistItems('snippet,contentDetails', $params));
}
}
$yt = new YouTube();
echo '<pre>' . print_r($yt->getVideosFromChannelName('CHANNEL_NAME'), true) . '</pre>';
Using API version 2, which is deprecated, the URL for uploads (of channel UCqAEtEr0A0Eo2IVcuWBfB9g) is:
https://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/users/UCqAEtEr0A0Eo2IVcuWBfB9g/uploads
There is an API version 3.
From https://stackoverflow.com/a/65440501/2585501:
This method is especially useful if a) the channel has more than 50 videos or if b) desire youtube video ids formatted in a flat txt list:
Obtain a Youtube API v3 key (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/65440324/2585501)
Obtain the Youtube Channel ID of the channel (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/16326307/2585501)
Obtain the Uploads Playlist ID of the channel: https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?id={channel Id}&key={API key}&part=contentDetails (based on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjUlmco7v2M)
Install youtube-dl (e.g. pip3 install --upgrade youtube-dl or sudo apt-get install youtube-dl)
Download the Uploads Playlist using youtube-dl: youtube-dl -j --flat-playlist "https://<yourYoutubePlaylist>" | jq -r '.id' | sed 's_^_https://youtu.be/_' > videoList.txt (see https://superuser.com/questions/1341684/youtube-dl-how-download-only-the-playlist-not-the-files-therein)
Posting long after the original question was asked, but I made a python package that does this using a very simple API. It gets all the videos uploaded to a channel, but I'm not sure about this part (included in the original question):
Videos uploaded to a channel can be from multiple users thus I don't think providing a user parameter would help...
Maybe YouTube changed in the 8 years since this question was posted, but if it didn't, the package I made might not cover this case.
To use the API:
pip3 install -U yt-videos-list # macOS
pip install -U yt-videos-list # Windows
# if that doesn't work, try
python3 -m pip install -U yt-videos-list # macOS
python -m pip install -U yt-videos-list # Windows
Then open up a python interpreter
python3 # macOS
python # Windows
and run the program:
from yt_videos_list import ListCreator
lc = ListCreator()
help(lc) # display API information - shows available parameters and functions
my_url = 'https://www.youtube.com/user/1veritasium'
lc.create_list_for(url=my_url)

Like many other answers, upload id is to be retrieved from the channel id first.
import urllib.request
import json
key = "YOUR_YOUTUBE_API_v3_BROWSER_KEY"
#List of channels : mention if you are pasting channel id or username - "id" or "forUsername"
ytids = [["bbcnews","forUsername"],["UCjq4pjKj9X4W9i7UnYShpVg","id"]]
newstitles = []
for ytid,ytparam in ytids:
urld = "https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=contentDetails&"+ytparam+"="+ytid+"&key="+key
with urllib.request.urlopen(urld) as url:
datad = json.loads(url.read())
uploadsdet = datad['items']
#get upload id from channel id
uploadid = uploadsdet[0]['contentDetails']['relatedPlaylists']['uploads']
#retrieve list
urld = "https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/playlistItems?part=snippet%2CcontentDetails&maxResults=50&playlistId="+uploadid+"&key="+key
with urllib.request.urlopen(urld) as url:
datad = json.loads(url.read())
for data in datad['items']:
ntitle = data['snippet']['title']
nlink = data['contentDetails']['videoId']
newstitles.append([nlink,ntitle])
for link,title in newstitles:
print(link, title)
That's my Python solution, using Google API.
Observations:
Create a .env file to store your API Developer Key, and put it in your .gitignore file
The parameter "forUserName" should be set with the name of the Youtube Channel (username). Alternatively, you can use the channel id, setting the parameter "id", instead of "forUserName".
The object "playlistItem" gives you access to each video. I'm showing only its title but there are many other properties.

You have to get the channel_id of the video you want to get the data from.
For getting the channel_id using the video_id, you can use the videos:list endpoint of the YouTube Data API - add video_id in Id parameter. example.
Then, with the channel_id, change the second character to "U" :
This modified id is the Uploads playlist of that said YouTube channel.
With this Uploads playlist_id, you can use the Playlistitem:list endpoint of the YouTube Data API to retrieve all the uploaded videos from the channel.
In the part parameter add "id,snippet,contentDetails,status".
and in playlistID add the modified channel ID.
and then execute.
I was trying to implement Twitter friendships/create by using REST Api 1.1 with PHP. But no matter how I tried it returns with
stdClass Object
(
[errors] => Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[message] => Bad Authentication data
[code] => 215
)
)
)
and my code is (using Abraham library and changed twitterauth to v1.1)
$twitteroauth = new TwitterOAuth( $this->consumer_key, $this->consumer_secret, $oauth_token, $oauth_token_secret);
$test_create = $twitteroauth->post('friendships/create',array('follow'=>true,'user_id'=>'2529416xx'));
print_r($test_create);exit;
I'm not an expert (I've got the same problem), but I think you shouldn't change the oauth version since it remains 1.0a. More information can be found here https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/overview#Authentication_required_on_all_endpoints and here https://dev.twitter.com/docs/auth/authorizing-request
The change it's only in the URL of the request, for instance:
https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/mentions_timeline.json
I was having the same problem like yours also. And the solutions are simple : dont change the version number (remains 1.0) and change the host to $host = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/";
that solved mine!
