Hello Ramco, To display a viewcount you need to get data by each video id. You can use below code for that. var clientTag = new RestClient("https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/"); var tagRequest = new RestRequest("videos", Method.Get); tagRequest.AddParameter("key", "YOUR_KEY"); tagRequest.AddParameter("part", "snippet,statistics"); tagRequest.AddParameter("maxResults", 10); tagRequest.AddParameter("id", data.id.videoId); var tagResponse = clientTag.Execute (tagRequest); foreach (var searchResult in tagResponse.Data.items) { Console.WriteLine("Video ID => " + searchResult.id + " Count ==> " + searchResult.statistics.viewCount); } VideoListResponse class is following: public class VideoListResponse { public string kind { get; set; } public string etag { get; set; } public List items { get; set; } public PageInfo pageInfo { get; set; } public class Item { public string kind { get; set; } public string etag { get; set; } public string id { get; set; } public Snippet snippet { get; set; } public Statistics statistics { get; set; } } public class Snippet { public DateTime publishedAt { get; set; } public string channelId { get; set; } public string title { get; set; } public string description { get; set; } public Thumbnails thumbnails { get; set; } public string channelTitle { get; set; } public List tags { get; set; } public string categoryId { get; set; } public string liveBroadcastContent { get; set; } public string defaultLanguage { get; set; } public Localized localized { get; set; } public string defaultAudioLanguage { get; set; } } public class Statistics { public string viewCount { get; set; } public string likeCount { get; set; } public string favoriteCount { get; set; } public string commentCount { get; set; } } public class Thumbnails { public Thumbnail defaultThumb { get; set; } public Thumbnail medium { get; set; } public Thumbnail high { get; set; } public Thumbnail standard { get; set; } public Thumbnail maxres { get; set; } } public class Thumbnail { public string url { get; set; } public int width { get; set; } public int height { get; set; } } public class Localized { public string title { get; set; } public string description { get; set; } } public class PageInfo { public int totalResults { get; set; } public int resultsPerPage { get; set; } } } Thanks Naimish

Hello Ramco, You can create a video link with title as below. The YoutubeSearchListResponse class is already given in previous answer. var response = client.Execute (request); foreach (var item in response.Data.items) { var videoLink = " " + item.snippet.title + " "; Console.WriteLine(videoLink); } Thanks Naimish
