I’m trying to access YouTube from within an iOS app, but the iOS SDK is a bit outdated and the source is abysmal. I’m trying to access the playlist of a particular account and show it as part of an app.
Is there any API or URL endpoint I can use? Do I need to use the SDK, or can I manually craft HTTP requests using Objective-C? (I’m thinking LRResty or something similar.)
Edit:
Do I need to have an API key to use the RESTful API? If so, how do I obtain one?
Yep: you want the Youtube Data API, probably the playlist feed. Standard HTTP requests will work fine.
