Please check if below class stucture is there in code or not. If exist than use that class name insted of YoutubeSearchListResponse class here var response = client.Execute YoutubeSearchListResponse >(request);. public class YoutubeSearchListResponse { public string Kind { get; set; } public string Etag { get; set; } public string NextPageToken { get; set; } public PageInfo PageInfo { get; set; } public List Items { get; set; } } public class PageInfo { public int TotalResults { get; set; } public int ResultsPerPage { get; set; } } public class Item { public string Kind { get; set; } public string Etag { get; set; } public Id Id { get; set; } public Snippet Snippet { get; set; } } public class Id { public string Kind { get; set; } public string VideoId { get; set; } } public class Snippet { public DateTime PublishedAt { get; set; } public string ChannelId { get; set; } public string Title { get; set; } public string Description { get; set; } // Other properties... } Thanks

Hello Ramco, Try below code. var client = new RestClient("googleapis.com/youtube/v3"); var request = new RestRequest("search", Method.GET); request.AddParameter("part", "snippet"); request.AddParameter("type", "video"); request.AddParameter("maxResults", 50); // maxResults can only be up to 50 request.AddParameter("channelId", "UCg3KHFFGngG-m_nNLKVw"); request.AddParameter("key", "AINHKHJHHGFG8"); // Assume you have a method to execute the request and parse the response var response = ExecuteRequest(client, request); // Get the videos from the first page var videos = response.Items; while (response.NextPageToken != null) { request.AddParameter("pageToken", response.NextPageToken, ParameterType.QueryString); response = ExecuteRequest(client, request); videos.AddRange(response.Items); } Thanks

The YouTube Data API has a quota limit that determines how many results you can retrieve. The maxResults parameter in the YouTube API specifies the maximum number of items that should be returned in the result set. The API response will contain a maximum of 50 items per request, even if you set maxResults to a higher value. To retrieve more than 50 videos, you’ll need to implement pagination by using the pageToken parameter. After making a request, the API response will contain a nextPageToken value. You can use this token as the pageToken parameter value in your next request to retrieve the next page of search results. Here’s an example of how you can modify your code to retrieve more videos: var client = new RestClient("googleapis.com/youtube/v3"); var request = new RestRequest("search", Method.GET); request.AddParameter("part", "snippet"); request.AddParameter("type", "video"); request.AddParameter("maxResults", 50); // maxResults can only be up to 50 request.AddParameter("channelId", "UCg3KHFFGngG-m_nNLKVw"); request.AddParameter("key", "AINHKHJHHGFG8"); // Assume you have a method to execute the request and parse the response var response = ExecuteRequest(client, request); // Get the videos from the first page var videos = response.Items; while (response.NextPageToken != null) { request.AddParameter("pageToken", response.NextPageToken, ParameterType.QueryString); response = ExecuteRequest(client, request); videos.AddRange(response.Items); } Thanks

The maximum value for the maxResults parameter is 50 for each request. To retrieve more than 50 results, you need to implement pagination by making subsequent requests with the pageToken parameter set to the value provided in the response of the previous request. var client = new RestClient("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3"); var request = new RestRequest("search", Method.GET); request.AddParameter("part", "snippet"); request.AddParameter("type", "video"); request.AddParameter("maxResults", 50); request.AddParameter("channelId", "UCg3KHFFGngG-m_nNLKVw"); request.AddParameter("key", "YOUR-API-KEY"); List videoIds = new List (); do { var response = client.Execute(request); var content = response.Content; dynamic data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(content); foreach (var item in data.items) { string videoId = item.id.videoId; videoIds.Add(videoId); } string nextPageToken = data.nextPageToken; if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(nextPageToken)) request.AddParameter("pageToken", nextPageToken); else break; } while (true);

Hi Naimish I am trying below code but it is giving error YoutubeSearchListResponse does not contain a definition for item. ExecuteRequest does not exist in the current context. var response = client.Execute (request); var orderByPublishAt = response.Data.items.OrderBy(x => x.snippet.publishedAt); htmlTable.Append(" "); htmlTable.Append(" Video Id Video Title Description Views Like Comment Published "); htmlTable.Append(" "); foreach (var data in orderByPublishAt) { var clientTag = new RestClient("www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/"); var tagRequest = new RestRequest("videos", Method.GET); tagRequest.AddParameter("key", "AIG8"); tagRequest.AddParameter("part", "snippet,statistics"); //tagRequest.AddParameter("order", "viewCount"); tagRequest.AddParameter("id", data.id.videoId); var tagResponse = clientTag.Execute (tagRequest); var videos = response.Items; while (response.NextPageToken != null) { request.AddParameter("pageToken", response.NextPageToken, ParameterType.QueryString); response = ExecuteRequest(client, request); videos.AddRange(response.Items); } }

you need to implement pagination in your request. The YouTube Data API allows a maximum of 50 results per page. You can use the pageToken parameter to navigate through the results. var client = new RestClient("googleapis.com/youtube/v3"); var request = new RestRequest("search", Method.GET); request.AddParameter("part", "snippet"); request.AddParameter("type", "video"); request.AddParameter("maxResults", 50); // Maximum results per page request.AddParameter("channelId", "UCg3KHFFGngG-m_nNLKVw"); request.AddParameter("key", "AINHKHJHHGFG8"); int totalResults = 400; // Total number of videos you want to retrieve int resultsPerPage = 50; int pages = totalResults / resultsPerPage; for (int i = 0; i
