YouTube APIs and Tools

2011-07-08T20:58:00.000-07:00

API Overview Guide

The YouTube APIs and Tools let you bring the YouTube experience to your webpage, application, or device. The Data API lets you perform most of the operations a normal YouTube user can on the YouTube website. The Player APIs let you control the YouTube player using JavaScript or ActionScript. You can also use the basic embedded player, which already contains player controls, or the chromeless player, which lets you create your own player controls.
First, you should decide which of our APIs and tools best suits your needs. Start with the embedded player if you want to add a player to your website to show individual videos or a playlist. If you're comfortable with JavaScript or Flash, you may want to use the Player APIs to customize a chromeless player. If you are programming a device or server-side logic for a website, look at the Data API. The table below attempts to describe the experience level of a developer for each option:

Basic	Player APIs with embedded player
Medium	Player APIs with chromeless player
Advanced	Data API and Player APIs with chromeless player

Player APIs

The player APIs let you control how YouTube videos look on your site. The first thing you should know is there are two kinds of players: the normal "embedded" player you've seen around the web, and a second "chromeless" player that is just a video box without any controls. The chromeless player is intended for experienced web programmers that want to design their own video player. Both of these players have the same API that are exposed in JavaScript and ActionScript.
The following sections discuss each option and their uses:

Embedded Player

The embedded player is the simplest way to place a YouTube video on a webpage. To customize the behavior and color of the player, you can use the documented Player Parameters. The code to display this player can be quickly generated from a program, making it possible to find a video using the Data API and then display it using the embedded player.
Once the embedded player has been added to a webpage, it can be controlled using JavaScript. Alternatively, if you are embedding the player in a Flash application, you can use ActionScript instead. Using either system, you can perform actions similar to what the user can do by clicking on the controls: you can pause the video, seek ahead, mute the sound, etc. You are also able to poll the status of the player and listen for events, to let your code react to whatever the player is currently doing.

Chromeless Player

Interface elements and controls around content is sometimes referred to as "chrome" (e.g. the browser buttons on the top of a webpage.) The chromeless player is, by definition, a YouTube video with no controls. This makes it easy to customize within Flash or HTML.
The chromeless player exposes the same JavaScript and ActionScript APIs that the embedded player does. The player demo lets you preview the embedded and chromeless players using JavaScript and some simple HTML controls. You can also use the Google Code Playground to debug and run JavaScript player code.

Data API

The Data API allows a program to perform many of the operations available on the YouTube website. It is possible to search for videos, retrieve standard feeds, and see related content. A program can also authenticate as a user to upload videos, modify user playlists, and more.
The Data API is primarily for developers who are used to programming in server-side languages. It is useful for sites or applications that wish to have a deeper integration with YouTube. This integration could be a web application allowing users to upload video to YouTube. It could also be a device or desktop application that brings the YouTube experience to a new platform. The Data API gives you programmatic access to the video and user information stored on YouTube. With this, you can personalize your site or application with the user's existing information as well as perform actions on their behalf (like commenting on and rating videos.)
If you are curious about how the Data API works at the basic level using XML and HTTP, you can read the Protocol Guide. This guide details the requests and responses that the YouTube API servers expect and return. To learn more about the structure of these requests and responses, read the Reference Guide. This guide defines the API's feed types, HTTP request parameters, HTTP response codes, and XML elements. You may also want to read about the Google Data Protocol and the Atom Publishing Protocol, which are the standards upon which the Data API is built.
To make working with the API easier, we have a number of client libraries that abstract the API into a language-specific object model. These client libraries are open source and can be used and modified under the Apache License 2.0. There are Developer's Guides for Java, .NET, PHP, and Python as well as sample code.

Welcome to the developer documentation for reCAPTCHA! reCAPTCHA

2011-07-06T22:50:00.000-07:00

Developer's Guide

Welcome to the developer documentation for reCAPTCHA! reCAPTCHA lets you embed a CAPTCHA in your web pages in order to protect them against spam and other types of automated abuse. Here, we explain how to add reCAPTCHA to your page.

Audience

This documentation is designed for people familiar with HTML forms and server-side processing. To install reCAPTCHA, you will probably need to edit some code.
We hope you find this documentation easy to follow. Make sure to join the reCAPTCHA developer forum to give feedback and discuss the API.

Overview

API Keys

To use reCAPTCHA, you need to sign up for API keys for your site. Unless you select the "global key" option, the keys are unique to your domain and sub-domains. (By default, all keys work on "localhost" (or "127.0.0.1"), so you can always develop and test on your local machine.)

Integration

Once you've signed up for API keys, adding reCAPTCHA to your site consists of two steps and optionally a third step where you customize the widget:

Client Side: Displaying the reCAPTCHA Widget (Required)
Server Side: Verifying the solution (Required)
Customizations (Optional)

In most Web forms, you usually have two files: the form itself with the fields, and the file with the script to process the inputs to the form. These two files correspond to steps 1 and 2 above. Therefore, in most cases you will have to modify two different files.
There are two ways to add reCAPTCHA to your site: (a) using a "plugin," or (b) writing code to communicate with our servers. We have plugins for most common applications and programming environments, and if there is one that fits your needs, we strongly encourage you to use it. If you're using one of the following programming environments or applications, click on the link below for specific instructions or plugins. Otherwise, proceed to our pages on displaying reCAPTCHA without a plugin and verifying the user's answer without a plugin.

5 Great Maps for Travelers

2011-07-05T21:33:00.000-07:00

Thursday, May 26, 2011

If you’re looking for some help to plan your next vacation, luckily there are some new sites to help you decide where to go, how to get there, and what to do once you’re there. Gone are the days of tedious library research, transportation schedule matching, and needlessly getting lost. These applications can do it all for you.

Rome 2 Rio

Rome 2 Rio is one of the most exciting new Google Maps API applications. Start by entering any two end points in the search fields and Rome 2 Rio will give you a list route options that include flights, trains, ferry, and driving directions. When you select a given route, the site allows you to view the details of each leg plotted out on the map and also gives you pricing options for flights. To learn more watch this video from Rome 2 Rio.

The Guardian - FCO Travel Advice Map
The U.K. Foreign & Commonwealth Office regularly issues travel advice for British citizens on the safest places to travel. Before you plan your next vacation, it might be worthwhile checking this map published by the Guardian that uses Google Fusion Tables to map out advice from the FCO. This map provides a fascinating snapshot of world travel.

Plnnr
Plnnr is a one stop shop for travel planning advice. You start Plnnr by selecting a destination and length of stay. Then you select a theme (with kids, outdoors, popular, or culture experience), your level of intensity (more leisurely travel or ‘see everything’ travel), and your desired level of luxury. Based on these values, Plnnr builds a top to bottom trip itinerary complete with route maps, hotels, and attractions. You can print these plans out or share them with friends online. It’s a great tool to help you get a lay of the land before you even visit a new city.

Pitchup.com
Pitchup.com is a new project to help U.K. campers find campsites or attractions and share reviews. The site has a wide range of tools to help your zero in on what you’re looking for. There are search tools for camping options (lodges, tents, trailers, etc.), layers of nearby photos and videos from Panoramio and YouTube, detailed information about each campsite, and much much more.

Sit or Squat
Ask anyone who’s spent significant time traveling and they’ll tell you one of the biggest difficulties on the road is finding a good public restroom. While you’re out and about, Sit or Squat makes this task easier by providing a list of over 105,000 open toilets from around the world. There are even pictures, descriptions, and ratings to help your decide where’s the best place to go!

Youtube API Overview Guide

2011-04-18T00:16:00.000-07:00

The YouTube APIs and Tools let you bring the YouTube experience to your webpage, application, or device. The Data API lets you perform most of the operations a normal YouTube user can on the YouTube website. The Player APIs let you control the YouTube player using JavaScript or ActionScript. There is the basic embedded player you are used to seeing as well as the chromeless player that lets you create your own player controls. Lastly there are the Widgets, and a custom player that you can embed on your webpage, even if you are not a web programmer.
First, you should decide on which of our APIs and tools best suits your needs. If you're familiar with HTML but haven't used much JavaScript, consider looking at the Widgets and custom player. If you are comfortable with JavaScript or Flash look at our Player APIs. If you are programming a device or server-side logic for a website, then look at the Data API. The table below attempts to describe the experience level of a developer for each option

Widgets

Widgets are JavaScript components that you can place in your webpage to enhance it with YouTube's large collection of content. Unlike the custom player, these widgets are for people who are familiar with HTML and JavaScript, but may not be familiar with server-side programming. Currently, the two widgets that are available are the Video Bar and the Video Search Control.

Video Bar

The Video Bar is a simple way to have a strip of video thumbnails on your site. After clicking on a thumbnail, a floating player opens to play the video right on your site. There is a simple wizard to get you started, as well as a Programming Guide to help you tweak it. Be sure to read the section on YouTube-specific functionality.

Video Search Control

The Video Search Control brings the power of the Google AJAX Search API to your site, giving you the ability to search through YouTube's massive amounts of content. Each search box is pre-configured with a set of tags that you define and displays thumbnails for the video results. These videos can then be played without leaving the page. Use the wizard to get started, and then read the Programming Guide for how to customize the player with CSS, automatically search based on site links, save user searches, and more!

Custom Player

Sometimes it's nice to have control over your website without having to edit it. Many websites benefit from having video content, but updating this content can be difficult. This is where the YouTube custom player comes to the rescue. You can customize a YouTube player and populate it with videos you specify. Once the custom player is on your site, you can easily update the appearance or content by logging into your YouTube account and clicking on Custom Video Players.
When creating a custom player, you are able to choose from a number of themes for the player. The videos that a custom player displays can be all of the videos on your YouTube channel, all of your favorite videos, or any custom playlist you have created. By creating playlists and hooking them up to a custom player, you can easily control what is displayed on your website without ever leaving YouTube!

Google AJAX Feed API

2010-06-09T19:06:00.000-07:00

What is the Google AJAX Feed API?

With the Feed API, you can download any public Atom, RSS, or Media RSS feed using only JavaScript, so you can easily mash up feeds with your content and other APIs like the Google Maps API.
The Google AJAX Feed API takes the pain out of developing mashups in JavaScript because you can now mash up feeds using only a few lines of JavaScript, rather than dealing with complex server-side proxies. This makes it easy to quickly integrate feeds on your website, as shown below.

To add the feed control above to your web site or blog without writing any code, use the Feed Control wizard. To get started with the AJAX Feed API, check out the developer guide or example projects.

Java YouTube Developers: Update Your Libraries

2010-06-09T18:23:00.000-07:00

Monday, May 17, 2010

If you access the
YouTube API via Java using the official Google Data Client Library,
we want to let you know about upcoming changes to the YouTube API that
may affect your existing code. Developers who are using a client library
in a language other than Java, or who use Java but access the YouTube
API without using the Google Data Client Library will not be affected by
this change.

Versions
of the Java Google Data Client Library earlier than
1.41.2 (the most recent release as of this writing) are
particularly picky about the data they receive back from the YouTube API
and deserialize into Java objects. If our YouTube API servers are
updated to start including an additional attribute for an existing
element in their Atom XML responses, older versions of the Java client
library will throw a deserialization exception complaining about this
extra data. While this might be considered beneficial in some contexts,
it unfortunately precludes our ability to extend the YouTube API’s
functionality by returning back new data in its responses. We recently
ran into this issue while trying to launch a new totalUploadViews attribute, for
instance.

We
removed the totalUploadViews
attribute soon after adding it, but progress can’t be delayed forever.
If you’re using the Java Google Data Client Library, we strongly
recommend that you update your installation
to the 1.41.2 (or newer) release. We plan on re-adding the totalUploadViews attribute in mid-July,
and other new attributes may follow. If you haven’t updated to a
compatible version of the Java client library by mid-July, your existing
Java code will start throwing exceptions when you retrieve an Atom XML
response containing the new attribute, such as a request for a user’s
YouTube profile.

A
special note to developers using YouTube Direct:
because YouTube Direct is built on top of the Java client library, it
also needs to be updated to use a compatible release. The latest archived downloads
of the source code for both the 1.0 and 2.0 releases, as well as the
SVN source, have been updated for compatibility. Please take the time to
update your YouTube Direct deployment in App Engine before mid-July.

Cheers,

New features in YouTube Direct v2.0

2010-06-09T00:20:00.000-07:00

Monday, April 26, 2010

YouTube's video platform has enabled a new generation of content creators to connect with billions of viewers every day. There's a great opportunity for organizations to leverage this online activity for video campaigns, coverage, or programming initiatives - but many find it difficult to connect directly with YouTube's community in a simple, effective way. We've just made that a lot easier with YouTube Direct.
YouTube Direct allows you to embed the upload functionality of YouTube directly into your own site, enabling your organization to request, review, and re-broadcast user-submitted videos with ease.

Extended Access Controls Available via API

2010-06-09T00:17:00.001-07:00

Tuesday, February 23, 2010

One of the feature requests that we've received most frequently from developers it to have a YouTube API call that enables or disables commenting for videos. It's a logical request — videos can be automatically uploaded via the API, and having to visit youtube.com from a web browser to modify the commenting settings manually doesn't make much sense.

We've taken action on this feature request, and gone one step further: the new element lets video owners enable or disable video rating, comment voting, video responses, and off-web syndication in addition to commenting. We've also taken an existing element for controlling embedding, , and migrated its functionality to . Existing code that uses the element will continue to work as per our API deprecation policy, but is preferred for new development.

You can set access controls for a video when uploading or updating a video. See the Setting access controls for a video section of the Developer's Guide for more information.

With the addition of the this feature, the YouTube API now offers parity with all the settings available via the YouTube web interface. We hope that applications that support YouTube uploads take advantage of this new functionality, and we know your users will appreciate it!

Cheers,

-Jeff Posnick, YouTube API Team

A New Format for JSON Results

2010-06-08T21:35:00.000-07:00

Monday, February 1, 2010

It's been two and a half years since we announced JSON as an alternative output format to Atom XML for YouTube API responses. As illustrated in the developer's guide and codelab, JSON-formatted data is a natural choice when writing web applications – after all, who wants to parse XML from JavaScript?

Our existing JSON format isn't perfect, however. It's very much a literal translation from Atom. As is often the case with literal translations, the current JSON format is wordier than it needs to be, and it lacks some of the elegance that a native dialect would offer.

We've rethought out current JSON implementation, and moved away from a literal representation of the Atom data to a format that we hope will be more pleasing to those who are fluent in JSON. The vestigial XML namespace prefixes are no more, and we've removed many pieces of metadata specific to Atom documents that come across as noise in JSON. Repeating data elements are always structured as true JSON lists, and useful video metadata that exist as XML attributes in Atom have been rearranged to make more sense in the JSON document. You'll also find that the new JSON results are more compact than Atom XML, which is of special importance to code running from limited-bandwith mobile applications.

We call this new format JSON-C, and you can read about all the technical details in our documentation and see it in action in our live demo.

With the release of JSON-C, we consider the legacy JSON format officially deprecated. All new development should prefer JSON-C to JSON, and if you have existing YouTube API code that relies on JSON-formatted results, you'll need to upgrade your code to use the new format. We will be supporting legacy JSON-formatted output in accordance with the deprecation policy outlined in our Terms of Service.

Cheers,

-Jeff Posnick, YouTube API Team
