i'm trying to get some statistics from a youtube channel. That's my first time, and idk how to do it.
i've created an API Key on cloud.google/etc and do have the channel ID provide by https://yt.lemnoslife.com/channels?handle=@USER. Then, i wrote:
#to call the YT API, i'm using:
api_par <- paste(paste0("key=", key), paste0("id=", userID), "part=statistics", sep = "&")api_call = paste0(base, "channels", "?", api_params)api_results = httr::GET(api_call)json_result = httr::content(api_result, "text", encoding="UTF-8")
#and to save as.dataframe, i'm using
channeljson <- fromJSON(json_result)channeldata <- as.data.frame(channeljson)
but the call has no answer (ie no data is getting saved on channeldata)
