GET
YouTube Search
Search YouTube and get back matching videos, channels, and playlists. Set engine=youtube and pass the query in q; both are required. Optionally narrow by country (gl) and interface language (hl), or pass a YouTube filter token in sp for pagination and advanced filters such as upload date, duration, or result type. Use this to find video content on a topic, track a channel’s recent uploads, or gauge how much video coverage a subject has. Note: this is served through the AIsa mapped path /apis/v1/youtube/search; the upstream provider’s canonical path is not mounted directly.
