Hi, thanks for reverting back. Here is the channel ID—UCTlcpma6Dx7uIZN0dFJJl9w. I get the playlist from https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/playlists/list , but I want the playlist ID in the api -- https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/videos/list because, if a video is in the playlist and I want to find which playlist it is in, then I need to go through all of the above steps 1...2...3 to get whether the video is attached to any playlist or not. So if you provide a playlist ID in https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/docs/videos/list snippet response, then it will be easy for me.
Also, from the above description, there is a link that is mismatched; sorry for that. Here is the link that I am referring to.

Description
- Description
In video.list API, we are getting almost all the info in snipet related to video, such as channel ID, video ID, title, description, etc.
But there is a missing *playlist ID*. I really need that field in the video.list API, because currently if I need a playlist ID for the video, I need to follow the below path to the Attech playlist in my video collection.
To find a playlist for specific videos:
Note: I only have a video ID and channel ID.
1. Need to call playlist.list api with channel ID filter
- So now i have all the playlist for that specific channel
- ex. now i have 20 playlist for that channel
- total api call = 1
2. after that, i need to call playlistItems.list for each playlist
- I need to call playlist Iteams.list api for each 20 playlist
- ex. if each playlist has 200 videos, then I need to call 4 playlistItems.list api with max 50 result.
- total api call = 20 * 4 = 80 api call
3. So, now I have to check all 4000 videos with my video ID and match it to include just the playlist ID to that video.
- I am looping in all 4000 collected video to find my video by comparing the video ID.
- After that, i can attach the playlist ID to the video ID.
This process is taking more time and resources with the API unit too.
Please add that one filed in video.list api inside of snippet object. So I can reduce the unit cost that is used in this process.

- Expected result
- I need a playlist ID field inside the snippet; if a video is in the playlist, then playlist ID will be there; if not, then I am okay with an empty field or none filed.
- Is it 100% reproducible?
- Yes
