Instructions for providing captions YouTube and my main problem is how do I find the name parameter if it is set or not.Captions need to be provided for all prerecorded audio content (including videos containing audio) and should be synchronized with media. So I'm guessing that example 3 need to have the name parameter set. Note this example would return nothing if you set the name=. Note the above example would return nothing if you remove the name=French or set it to something else. optional (should be set if you like to translate the CC to other language. name: the track name, Required only if it is set.they both rout to timpedtext API.īefore I mention them we should note the parameters the API need. There are two APIs (or links to API) can be used.

but I was able to get some of the video's caption even though I'm not the owner of any. Does any one know how to get the CC for any Youtube video that has the caption available? I know on the API 2.0 documentation mentions that it is only available for the owner of the video.
