I asked in this question how to see how many views a Youtube playlist has. Unfortunately, it has been removed from the UI. Can I retrieve Youtube playlist views through the Youtube API?
For now, I think, there is no way to get round it in API requests. According to YouTube's Playlist Documentation, it does not provide a statistics parameter which is responsible for providing various stats about videos. I was also looking for a similar use case and I came across this question. Maybe someone else can find a (hackable-)way along the way.

I tried Analytics and Reporting APIs separately. And there are questions and answers which deals with them separately. But I want to know is there any single one shot API which gives both? The total number of videos means all the videos irrespective of the playlists. I'm doing this with ReactJS for my own portfolio website.
I did some more research on this. I couldn't find a full fledged api with documentation but you can use this:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/channels?part=statistics&id=your-channel-id&key=your-api-key
Make sure you've that api enabled. I'm using Youtube Analytics.
I have implemented the spotify api succefully and fetched all tracks url using there API.
But The requirement is that:
Search that spotify track on youtube and get url for same as of youtube.
I have found one website from where it is possible.
Please have look:: http://spo2tu.be/
But I would like to implement same logic on my website backend script.
Do anyone give me some idea or solution on same?
Hej,
I'd like to retrieve the cover artworks of my current listenings and put it in a way like this:
[http://codepen.io/motorlatitude/pen/hipIl][1]
I found a couple of solution on how to get the album covers in general, but not for my recent listenings only.
Thanks! :)
The Spotify Web API has an endpoint for returning the cover artwork of a given album, see the images property in the information return in Get Album.
However, Spotify doesn't expose recent listenings, so you'll need to get that information somehow. Some people use Last.FM API, that can give you this information if you scrobble to Last.fm from Spotify or any music player.
I want to know which playlists contain a certain video. The opposite is easy: find which video's are in a playlist, but I don't want that.
I can already have YT do this via the following route, but that's stupid and slow:
get channelId from video data (videos?id=...)
get playlists from channelId (playlists?channelId=...)
loop through all playlists and find all their videos (playlistItems?playlistId=...)
Like I said: stupid and slow. These steps are possible, because I only want playlists authored by the video's author. (Otherwise I'd have to download all of YT.)
What I'm looking for, sort of, is a request: playlists?videoId=..., but of course that doesn't exist.
Is there a better way than my 3 steps?
PS. I've created the script to use my 3 steps, but it's A LOT of requests. That and the playlists don't seem to have usable playlist ID's... I need the ID that the browser uses to show the playlist GUI style.
As of now, the Youtube API does not support a call like this, and in my opinion never will. This is probably an intentional decision by Youtube to hide the playlists, even the YT Analytics API doesn't show how many lists use your video.
It seems the way you do it is the only workaround - in case you only need the playlists for one specific user.
How can I efficiently retrieve a list of channels that a Vimeo video is listed in from the Advanced Vimeo API?
The Advanced Vimeo API provides the methods channels.addVideo and channels.removeVideo for managing the channels a video belongs to. Also, the channels.getVideos method is provided for retrieving the list of videos belonging to a channel.
However, there is no videos.getChannels method. This means that in order to find all the channels a video is included in one would need to call channels.getVideos (possibly more than once if the channel has more than 50 videos) for each channel of interest. This seems terribly inefficient.
From what I have seen so far it has not been implemented into v1, but will be added into v2. I am still looking to see if there is an alternative
edit*
take a look at this page because they have this method vimeo.channels.getAll
VIMEO
I know this will get you a list of channels, from there I dont know if you can compare that to the video to make a list of channels that the video is in. I'm still looking.
