I want one channel id for the testing purpose. or you can try below code and check var client = new RestClient("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3"); var request = new RestRequest("channels", Method.Get); request.AddParameter("part", "snippet"); request.AddParameter("id", "ChannelID"); request.AddParameter("key", "KEY"); request.AddParameter("fields", "items(brandingSettings(channel(keywords)))"); // Execute the request and retrieve the response var response1 = client.Execute(request);

Retrieving the history or removed channel keywords using code alone is not feasible. To track changes to the keywords over time, additional logic needs to be implemented. One approach could be to periodically obtain the current keywords for the channel using code, store them in a database or file, and then query the database or file to retrieve the keywords for a specific time period or snapshot when historical keywords are required.

Hello Ramco, Using code its not possible to retrive the history Or removed Channel Keywords. you would need to implement some additional logic to track the changes to the keywords over time. Like, you need to Periodically retrieve the current keywords for the channel using the code (Which provide current keyword), and store them in a database or file. Then, when you want to retrieve the historical keywords, you can query the database or file to get the keywords for a specific time period or snapshot. Thanks Naimish Makwana

Hello Ramco, Use below code. var client = new RestClient("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3"); var request = new RestRequest("channels", Method.Get); request.AddParameter("part", "brandingSettings"); request.AddParameter("id", "ChanneID"); request.AddParameter("key", "KEY"); // Execute the request and retrieve the response var response1 = client.Execute(request); If your channel has keyword than it will return keyword in response else it will not.

Hi Naimish Can u pls provide code how to retreive using RestSharp Thanks

Hello Ramco, YouTube maintains a history of the keywords that are used for a channel. When a creator updates the keywords for their channel, the new keywords are added to the existing list of keywords. This means that the history of the channel's keywords is not overwritten, but rather expanded upon with each new update. Thanks Naimish Makwana
