What are the YouTube APIs and Tools?
YouTube on any screen, any time. The YouTube APIs and Tools enable you to integrate YouTube's video content and functionality into your website, software application, or device.
Data API
The Data API lets you incorporate YouTube functionality into your own application or website. You can perform searches, upload videos, create playlists, and more.

Player APIs
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.
|
Custom Player
The Custom Player takes you a step beyond just pasting a video into your site. Anyone can easily configure the custom player to show playlists, favorites, or their own videos.
|
Widgets
Widgets are simple page elements you can embed in your website to give it YouTube functionality. Add a strip of videos or allow your users to perform a video search just by adding some JavaScript to your page.
|
YouTube Direct
YouTube Direct allows you to easily solicit user generated content from your site visitors, moderate the submissions, and display them on your site.

Developer Dashboard
The Developer Dashboard shows you at a glance the number of API requests, playbacks, uploads and errors that your app is generating. All you need to do is to provide a developer key in your API requests.
