Search, video details, channels and playlists. Where a demo video lives once it is made.

Connecting

In the dashboard, open Connectors, find YouTube Data API and press Connect. You will be sent to sign in; the connection is saved once that succeeds.

What you will need

Getting the credential

  1. Go to Google Cloud Console
  2. Create a new project or select existing one
  3. Enable APIs: APIs & Services → Library → Search “YouTube Data API v3” → Enable
  4. Create OAuth 2.0 Credentials:
    • Go to APIs & Services → Credentials
    • Click “Create Credentials” → OAuth 2.0 Client IDs
    • Choose “Web Application”
    • Add redirect URIs
    • Copy Client ID and Client Secret
  5. Optional: Create API Key for read-only operations

Notes

  • Reading public data works with an API key; anything about YOUR channel, and every write, needs OAuth.
  • Quota is per project per day and searches are expensive — a search costs about a hundred times a video lookup.
  • Per user: 100 requests per 100 seconds
  • Per project: 10,000 requests per day
  • Concurrent requests: Recommended max 10
