I am currently working on a desktop application that requires the ability to report inappropriate YouTube videos using the YouTube API. Although I have reviewed the YouTube API documentation, I'm encountering challenges in understanding how to implement the process of programmatically reporting a video. I have come across an example code in a different programming language, but I'm struggling to locate an equivalent solution in C#.
I have referred to the YouTube API documentation, specifically the videos.reportAbuse endpoint, which seems to provide the functionality I need. However, the code example provided is in a different programming language, and I'm unable to find a similar example in C#.
I would greatly appreciate any assistance or guidance on how to implement the reportAbuse endpoint in C# or any pointers on translating the example code from the provided documentation to C#. Thank you in advance for your help!

I have downloaded the GoogleCredential json file.
