We’re happy to announce that the YouTube Analytics API is now available for use by all developers. We have removed the whitelist that was previously in place and which only allowed approved developers to use the API.
It’s important to note that while the YouTube Analytics API can now be used by anyone, it is still considered an “experimental” API—please see the note at the top of the documentation, https://developers.google.com/youtube/analytics/, for an explanation of what that means to you as a developer. There are a number of additional report metrics planned for the API before the “experimental” label is removed, and you will continue to see the API’s functionality grow over the coming months.
The YouTube Analytics API is the first public YouTube API built on top of Google’s new API infrastructure, and any of the Google APIs client libraries listed at https://developers.google.com/discovery/libraries can be used to access it. For folks who haven’t used these client libraries before, this video provides a good overview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZj6rAYkYOg
The Getting Started guide has all the information you need to write your first integration: https://developers.google.com/youtube/analytics/getting_started
We’re very eager to hear any feature requests or bug reports about the new API. Please see this blog post for instructions on how to file them: http://apiblog.youtube.com/2012/09/the-youtube-api-on-stack-overflow.html
Cheers,
