var client = new RestClient("googleapis.com/youtube/analytics/v1/reports");
            var request = new RestRequest("query", Method.GET);

            request.AddParameter("ids", "channel==UCgKHSHDGgG-m_nNoaVw");
            request.AddParameter("metrics", "views");
            request.AddParameter("dimensions", "insightTrafficSourceType,insightTrafficSourceDetail");

            //var response = client.Execute<YoutubeSearchListResponse>(request);

The IsSuccessful property typically exists in IRestResponse , where T is the type of the expected response content. Since you're using client.Execute(request) without specifying the response type, you're getting an IRestResponse , which indeed doesn't have IsSuccessful . To check if the request was successful, you can check the StatusCode property of the response. var client = new RestClient("https://googleapis.com/youtube/analytics/v1/reports"); var request = new RestRequest("query", Method.GET); request.AddParameter("ids", "channel==UCg3ZpkQB-m_nNoaJw"); request.AddParameter("metrics", "views"); request.AddParameter("dimensions", "insightTrafficSourceType,insightTrafficSourceDetail"); request.AddParameter("key", "AIzG8"); var response = client.Execute(request); if (response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK) { var responseData = JObject.Parse(response.Content); var videoDetails = responseData["items"][0]["snippet"]; var statistics = responseData["items"][0]["statistics"]; var result = new YouTubeVideoDetails { VideoId = videoId, Title = (string)videoDetails["title"], Description = (string)videoDetails["description"], Likes = (int)statistics["likeCount"], Comments = (int)statistics["commentCount"] }; return result; } else { // Handle error return null; }

Hi I have below code. It is giving error - IRestResponse does not contain a definition for IsSuccessful. Since TrafficSearch returns void a return keyword must not be followed by an Object Expression. var client = new RestClient("googleapis.com/youtube/analytics/v1/reports"); var request = new RestRequest("query", Method.GET); request.AddParameter("ids", "channel==UCg3ZpkQB-m_nNoaJw"); request.AddParameter("metrics", "views"); request.AddParameter("dimensions", "insightTrafficSourceType,insightTrafficSourceDetail"); request.AddParameter("key", "AIzG8"); //var response = client.Execute (request); var response = client.Execute(request); if (response.IsSuccessful) { var responseData = JObject.Parse(response.Content); var videoDetails = responseData["items"][0]["snippet"]; var statistics = responseData["items"][0]["statistics"]; var result = new YouTubeVideoDetails { VideoId = videoId, Title = (string)videoDetails["title"], Description = (string)videoDetails["description"], Likes = (int)statistics["likeCount"], Comments = (int)statistics["commentCount"] }; return result; } else { // Handle error return null; } Thanks

Hey Ramco please try the below code using RestSharp; using Newtonsoft.Json.Linq; public class YouTubeVideoDetails { public string VideoId { get; set; } public string Title { get; set; } public string Description { get; set; } public string[] SearchKeywords { get; set; } public int Likes { get; set; } public int Comments { get; set; } } public class YouTubeAPIHelper { private const string API_KEY = "YOUR_YOUTUBE_API_KEY"; public YouTubeVideoDetails GetVideoDetails(string videoId) { var client = new RestClient("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos"); var request = new RestRequest(Method.GET); request.AddParameter("part", "snippet,statistics"); request.AddParameter("id", videoId); request.AddParameter("key", API_KEY); var response = client.Execute(request); if (response.IsSuccessful) { var responseData = JObject.Parse(response.Content); var videoDetails = responseData["items"][0]["snippet"]; var statistics = responseData["items"][0]["statistics"]; var result = new YouTubeVideoDetails { VideoId = videoId, Title = (string)videoDetails["title"], Description = (string)videoDetails["description"], Likes = (int)statistics["likeCount"], Comments = (int)statistics["commentCount"] // You can add more properties like searchKeywords if you have them }; return result; } else { // Handle error return null; } } }
