Description
- Description
When specifying the type=video on the youtube search api it is including results that are for channels as well. This appears to have started within the last 11 hours (i.e. sometime in Feb 7, 2025, possibly midnight Pacific time)
- Try it in the playground such as this:
- Result (copy and paste a JSON response you received)
Result includes channels such as:
"items": [
{
"kind": "youtube#searchResult",
"etag": "S9pgGiyVxfSSMcjxWviyTc58lKM",
"id": {
"kind": "youtube#channel",
"channelId": "UCDGknzyQfNiThyt4vg4MlTQ"
}
},
- Expected result
To not include results that have a kind other than video -- i.e. only results that look like this:
{
"kind": "youtube#searchResult",
"etag": "JPVz08jMhLp2D0mzVaCW5zLsT3w",
"id": {
"kind": "youtube#video",
"videoId": "brAgl-QzjEk"
}
},
- Is it 100% reproducible?
Yes
