API referenceYouTube
YouTube profile (v3)
A YouTube channel with the About panel and richer video fields.
The same target as youtube-profile, with more of the channel detail
available. Set include_about to attach the channel's About panel,
including its links, location and joining date.
Shorts and long-form video are returned from the same channel endpoint and are labelled by content type rather than by duration.
The example response below is real output from this endpoint, not an illustration. Long lists and long strings are shortened to keep the page readable, and each place that happens is marked. This example took 17.3s.
