Youtube Data API V3 - No Video url

Question

I am using youtube data api version 3, to get the top youtube videos, i am calling the REST api like this:

https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/#p/youtube/v3/youtube.search.list?part=snippet&forMine=true&maxResults=10&order=viewCount&type=video&_h=6&

and get the data like this is json format:

"kind": "youtube#searchResult",
"etag": "adasdasdasdasdas",
"id": 
{
  "kind": "youtube#video",
  "videoId": "123123asdsad12"
},
"snippet": 
{
  "publishedAt": "date",
  "channelId": "Gasdqqweqweqwr123123",
  "title": "my tutle",
  "description": "xyz",
  "thumbnails": 
  {
    "default": 
    {
      "url": "......jpg",
      "width": 120,
      "height": 90
    },
    "medium": 
    {
      "url": "......jpg",
      "width": 320,
      "height": 180
    },
    "high": 
    {
      "url": "......jpg",
      "width": 480,
      "height": 360
    }
  },
  "liveBroadcastContent": "none"
}

but this data do not contain youtube video url, how can i obtain it from the api?

Answer 1

You can have the video url like this :

You have the result :

     "kind": "youtube#searchResult",
"etag": "\"adasdasdasdasdas"",
"id": {
"kind": "youtube#video",
"videoId": "123123asdsad12"
},
...

Now you get the field "videoId": "123123asdsad12"

And you can acces to the video via the link:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=123123asdsad12

And that's it !
