Recently, Youtube added the ability to break up their videos in the progress bar into sections called "chapters".
https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9884579?hl=en
Currently I am able to get info about a video from the Youtube API. However, it doesn't seem like there's any info about a video's chapters, and I haven't found anything in the API documentation about chapters. Am I missing something, or is there simply no way to get chapter data yet?
As far as I know, such data is in plain text in the description of the video.
So, you can use the following example:
Video used in this demonstration: Top 10 Monsters with 2500 Attack in YuGiOh
