Introduction
Toad for Oracle 2018 EditionToad for Oracle 2018 EditionToad for Oracle is a database development and management toolset that reduces the time and effort developers and DBAs spend on daily tasks.
This document is intended for developers who want to write applications that interact with YouTube. It explains basic concepts of YouTube and of the API itself. It also provides an overview of the different functions that the API supports.
Before you start
Resources and resource types
A resource is an individual data entity with a unique identifier. The table below describes the different types of resources that you can interact with using the API.
Note that, in many cases, a resource contains references to other resources. For example, a
playlistItem resource's snippet.resourceId.videoId property identifies a video resource that, in turn, contains complete information about the video. As another example, a search result contains either a videoId , playlistId , or channelId property that identifies a particular video, playlist, or channel resource.
Supported operations
The following table shows the most common methods that the API supports. Some resources also support other methods that perform functions more specific to those resources. For example, the
videos.rate method associates a user rating with a video, and the thumbnails.set method uploads a video thumbnail image to YouTube and associates it with a video.
The API currently supports methods to list each of the supported resource types, and it supports write operations for many resources as well.
The table below identifies the operations that are supported for different types of resources. Operations that insert, update, or delete resources always require user authorization. In some cases,
list methods support both authorized and unauthorized requests, where unauthorized requests only retrieve public data while authorized requests can also retrieve information about or private to the currently authenticated user.
Quota usage
The YouTube Data API uses a quota to ensure that developers use the service as intended and do not create applications that unfairly reduce service quality or limit access for others. All API requests, including invalid requests, incur at least a one-point quota cost. You can find the quota available to your application in the API Console.
Projects that enable the YouTube Data API have a default quota allocation of 10 thousand units per day, an amount sufficient for the overwhelming majority of our API users. Default quota, which is subject to change, helps us optimize quota allocations and scale our infrastructure in a way that is more meaningful to our API users. You can see your quota usage on the Usage tab for the API in the Google Developer's Console.
Note: If you reach the quota limit, you can request additional quota on the Quotas tab in the Developer's Console.

Note that projects that had enabled the YouTube Data API before April 20, 2016, have a different default quota for that API.
Calculating quota usage
Google calculates your quota usage by assigning a cost to each request, but the cost is not the same for each request. Two primary factors influence a request's quota cost:
With these rules in mind, you can estimate the number of read, write, or upload requests that your application could send per day without exceeding your quota. For example, if you have a daily quota of 1,000,000 units, your application could have any of the following approximate limits:
Important: Only retrieving the resource parts that your application needs conserves your daily quota and make the entire system more efficient.
Partial resources
The API allows, and actually requires, the retrieval of partial resources so that applications avoid transferring, parsing, and storing unneeded data. This approach also ensures that the API uses network, CPU, and memory resources more efficiently.
The API supports two request parameters, which are explained in the following sections, that enable you to identify the resource properties that should be included in API responses.
