Overview
The Data APIs let you incorporate YouTube functionality into your own application or website. You can perform searches, upload videos, create playlists, and more.
The Player APIs give you control over YouTube video playback on your website. Configure basic settings, drive the player interface, or even build your own player controls.
YouTube Direct Lite allows you to easily solicit user generated content from your site visitors, moderate the submissions, and display them on your site.
Getting started
It's easy to display YouTube videos on your site and customize the player -- using the iframe embed, player parameters or the Player APIs.
From the most popular videos feed to the top rated, YouTube Data APIs provide many standard feeds to help you search and display the videos you want.
Use the YouTube Data APIs to upload videos directly. We have client libraries in many programming languages to make it easy for you.
