    YouTube video info

    Hi

    I know that I have to download YT API etc to do this. But i need a place to start for coding. I wanna get vid info like user views, date published etc -- not just on my account, but for entire YT. I donno much .asp coding yet, but i can do C# pc programming. Is there a way to do this with a minimal .asp coding as possible?

    Thanks.

    I think the place to start is not with coding, but with looking up the relevant APIs provided by YouTube to see if any of them can provide what you are looking for.

    I get maybe two dozen requests for help with some sort of programming or design problem every day. Most have more sense than to send me hundreds of lines of code. If they do, I ask them to find the smallest example that exhibits the problem and send me that. Mostly, they then find the error themselves. "Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    Start by authentication using OAuth 2.0 (though it may not be required to access certain type of public data), then use appropriate Rest APIs to access the data you want. Some languages have a client library. I don't know if C# is one of them.
