A YouTube operational API instance consists in a website (more precisely a HTTPS server) using this repository code. The YouTube operational API proposes 2 services:
- Web-scraping based endpoints consist in parsing YouTube UI webpages content complementing YouTube Data API v3 features. For instance with YouTube operational API web-scraping based endpoints you can:
- retrieve YouTube most replayed video curve
- list the shorts of a given YouTube channel
- and many more features as shown on https://yt.lemnoslife.com
- The no-key service enables YouTube Data API v3 requests without spending YouTube Data API v3 quota. To use this no-key service retrieve for instance https://A_YOUTUBE_OPERATIONAL_API_INSTANCE/noKey/search?q=test instead of https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?q=test&key=AIzaSy... with
AIzaSy...being a YouTube Data API v3 key. As the no-key service actually relies on an instance specific set of YouTube Data API v3 keys and I do not share any, hosting your own YouTube operational API instance will not have its no-key service working.
