How to get Youtube channel's email using using Python, Javascript or an API

Does Youtube provides any API to get channel emails using Oauth?
Or How can I get the email in About Section in the provided image using scraping with Python.
About section Youtube email

Going though the YouTube api if you use the channels.list method. with the snippit
As follows
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# Sample Python code for youtube.channels.list
# See instructions for running these code samples locally:
# https://developers.google.com/explorer-help/code-samples#python
import os
import google_auth_oauthlib.flow
import googleapiclient.discovery
import googleapiclient.errors
scopes = ["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/youtube.readonly"]
def main():
# Disable OAuthlib's HTTPS verification when running locally.
# *DO NOT* leave this option enabled in production.
os.environ["OAUTHLIB_INSECURE_TRANSPORT"] = "1"
api_service_name = "youtube"
api_version = "v3"
client_secrets_file = "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET_FILE.json"
# Get credentials and create an API client
flow = google_auth_oauthlib.flow.InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file(
client_secrets_file, scopes)
credentials = flow.run_console()
youtube = googleapiclient.discovery.build(
api_service_name, api_version, credentials=credentials)
request = youtube.channels().list(
part="snippet",
id="CHANNELID"
)
response = request.execute()
print(response)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
You can then see the description of the channel in the results. If the owner of the channel included the email address there then you will see it. The description is shown in the about tab of the channel

Is there any way to prevent the authorize when I using youtube api to upload videos everytimes?

here is the way using youtube api to upload videos to the channel.
but my question is every time i run the code, it ask me to "Please visit this URL to authorize this application"
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# Sample Python code for youtube.videos.insert
# NOTES:
# 1. This sample code uploads a file and can't be executed via this interface.
# To test this code, you must run it locally using your own API credentials.
# See: https://developers.google.com/explorer-help/guides/code_samples#python
# 2. This example makes a simple upload request. We recommend that you consider
# using resumable uploads instead, particularly if you are transferring large
# files or there's a high likelihood of a network interruption or other
# transmission failure. To learn more about resumable uploads, see:

def main():
# Disable OAuthlib's HTTPS verification when running locally.
# *DO NOT* leave this option enabled in production.
os.environ["OAUTHLIB_INSECURE_TRANSPORT"] = "1"
api_service_name = "youtube"
api_version = "v3"
client_secrets_file = "C:/Users/User/computer science/moviepy/client_secret_660339349555-der7rru7no2g1v4oe1o1g7qqm27ujodo.apps.googleusercontent.com.json"
# Get credentials and create an API client
flow = google_auth_oauthlib.flow.InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file(
client_secrets_file, scopes)
credentials = flow.run_console()
youtube = googleapiclient.discovery.build(
api_service_name, api_version, credentials=credentials)
request = youtube.videos().insert(
part = "snippet,status",
body={
"snippet": {
"title": "test",
"description": "四次是鬼"
},
"status": {
"privacyStatus": "private"
}
},
# TODO: For this request to work, you must replace "YOUR_FILE"
# with a pointer to the actual file you are uploading.
media_body=MediaFileUpload("D:/Downloads/ytdl/wtf8.mp4")
)
response = request.execute()
#print(response)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
is there any way to prevent this situation?
i hope someone can solve my question, thanks.

Define 'api' traceback errors in Python

I am trying to search YouTube for videos using YouTube v3 API in Python with the requirements in the code, but I'm getting this error.
How can I prevent this from happening? This code is from Google too. You can edit the code on the Google website here. I'm a total noob at this so if you have any information I must know for the future, please do say so. Thanks

Yeah your code may be from google but you have renamed something.
All your calls need to go though the YouTube serivce object
youtube = googleapiclient.discovery.build(
api_service_name, api_version, credentials=credentials)
Yet you are calling it using api
request = api.youtube.search().list(
it should be
request = youtube.search().list(
Check the code from google again and becameful when you rename things if you don't understand what there used for.

You need to check the parameters you are sending remove location thats not a valid location

execute oauth2 headless in python going against google apis

Google's youtube Analytics API is Oauth2 based only.
I am using the below test script to see if I can gain access:
import os
import google.oauth2.credentials
import google_auth_oauthlib.flow
from googleapiclient.discovery import build
from googleapiclient.errors import HttpError
from google_auth_oauthlib.flow import InstalledAppFlow
SCOPES = ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/yt-analytics.readonly']
API_SERVICE_NAME = 'youtubeAnalytics'
API_VERSION = 'v2'
CLIENT_SECRETS_FILE = 'client_secret.json'
def get_service():
flow = InstalledAppFlow.from_client_secrets_file(CLIENT_SECRETS_FILE, SCOPES)
credentials = flow.run_console()
return build(API_SERVICE_NAME, API_VERSION, credentials = credentials)
def execute_api_request(client_library_function, **kwargs):
response = client_library_function(
**kwargs
).execute()
print(response)
if __name__ == '__main__':
# Disable OAuthlib's HTTPs verification when running locally.
# *DO NOT* leave this option enabled when running in production.
os.environ['OAUTHLIB_INSECURE_TRANSPORT'] = '1'
youtubeAnalytics = get_service()
execute_api_request(
youtubeAnalytics.reports().query,
ids='channel==MINE',
startDate='2017-01-01',
endDate='2017-12-31',
metrics='estimatedMinutesWatched,views,likes,subscribersGained',
dimensions='day',
sort='day'
)
my problem is that this script requres me to open a browser, set a link, login, then get a token cable.
Is there ANY way to do this in a "headless" mode?
I need to pull these APIs for machine-to-machine transfer.
Thanks!

Do it once, then save the credentials object returned by credentials = flow.run_console() to either a database or a file. This contains a "refresh token" which can be used in subsequent api calls, meaning you can skip the flow.run_console step, and just use the saved credentials in a build(API_SERVICE_NAME, API_VERSION, credentials = credentials) call.
There's a note about this in the docs here:
https://developers.google.com/youtube/reporting/guides/authorization/installed-apps#exchange-authorization-code

People API returns no connections when authenticating via Service Account [duplicate]

I'm trying to programmatically access the list of contacts on my own personal Google Account using the Python Client Library
This is a script that will run on a server without user input, so I have it set up to use credentials from a Service Account I set up. My Google API console setup looks like this.
I'm using the following basic script, pulled from the examples provided in the API docs -
import json
from httplib2 import Http
from oauth2client.service_account import ServiceAccountCredentials
from apiclient.discovery import build
# Only need read-only access
scopes = ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/contacts.readonly']
# JSON file downloaded from Google API Console when creating the service account
credentials = ServiceAccountCredentials.from_json_keyfile_name(
'keep-in-touch-5d3ebc885d4c.json', scopes)
# Build the API Service
service = build('people', 'v1', credentials=credentials)
# Query for the results
results = service.people().connections().list(resourceName='people/me').execute()
# The result set is a dictionary and should contain the key 'connections'
connections = results.get('connections', [])
print connections #=> [] - empty!
When I hit the API it returns a result set without any 'connections' key. Specifically it returns -
>>> results
{u'nextSyncToken': u'CNP66PXjKhIBMRj-EioECAAQAQ'}
Is there something pertaining to my setup or code that's incorrect? Is there a way to see the response HTTP status code or get any further detail about what it's trying to do?
Thanks!
Side note: When I try it using the "Try it!" feature in the API docs, it correctly returns my contacts. Although I doubt that uses the client library and instead relies on user authorization via OAuth

The personFields mask is required. Specify one or more valid paths. Valid paths are documented at https://developers.google.com/people/api/rest/v1/people.connections/list/.
Additionally, use fields mask to specify which fields are included in a partial response.
Instead of:
results = service.people().connections().list(resourceName='people/me').execute()
... try:
results = service.people().connections().list(resourceName='people/me',personFields='names,emailAddresses',fields='connections,totalItems,nextSyncToken').execute()

Here is a working demo. I just tested it right now. Python 3.5.2
google-api-python-client==1.6.4
httplib2==0.10.3
oauth2client==4.1.2
You can save it to demo.py and then just run it. I left the create_contact function in case you might want to use it and have one more example on the API usage.
CLIENT_ID and CLIENT_SECRET are environment variables so I don't accidentally share that in code.

With service account, in DwD - G Suite Domain-wide Delegation, is necessary impersonate or delegate user in this way
delegate = credentials.create_delegated('user#xxxx.xxx')

For fellow googlers: I have the same problem using the JS API.
I succeded on my personal gmail address, but not on my work one (g-suite) neither on my secondary gmail address.
Can't see the pattern. It's possible that the work one has contact listing deactivated.
